SanDisk Corp. (SNDK) recently launched its Cruzer Enterprise secure USB flash drives. This enhanced version of the USB flash drive was designed to satisfy specific requirements of government employees. The product was tested under military standard 810-F to guarantee certain features that prevented loss of critical information. It was also tested under Section 508 to ensure suitability of the product for the visually impaired.
We believe this Cruzer line of flash products will open the flood gate of opportunities for SanDisk as other government agencies around the world reach out for such products for efficient operation. Cruzer Enterprise is equipped with cryptographic modules, encryption algorithms and a durable waterproof design. The water-resistant feature will suit soldiers, healthcare professionals and others who need to protect data against liquid damage.
SanDisk’s Central Management and Control software (CMC) will operate the device, which will be preloaded in the company-issued Cruzer Enterprise drive. This will help government agencies and IT departments control the management of the device, including password recovery, backup and restoration of data, central-usage tracking, generation of audit reports, etc. These features make the SanDisk Cruzer Enterprise secure USB flash drives apposite for customers across various industries.
SanDisk already has a comprehensive product portfolio, extensive retail distribution and strategic manufacturing relationships. The company commands a strong position in the flash memory card market, with its vertically integrated model enabling it to acquire substantial share in cards and USB drives. This enhanced version of the SanDisk Cruzer Enterprise will help the company retain its dominance in US markets and also acquire additional customers across geographies.
