I have not been able to find a USB stick with 100% on-board encryption yet that 
works with anything other than Windows.  If anyone is aware of one that works 
in a Windows/Mac/Linux environment please share that info.

And that was the fourth option I failed to mention in my message.  Glad you are 
going through the process.  It looks like a good product, but some of us are 
constrained by regulation on what can be used.  I have been through most of the 
site and can't seem to find if the product works with more than Windows 
clients.  Will it support Mac, Linux, Solaris, etc?

We very specifically say "Compliant" rather than "Validated" on our website.

 

We are working with a lab to assist us through the FIPS 140-1 validation 
process.

 

We says FIPS Compliant on the website, rather than FIPS Validated, because we 
have crypto components that have passed FIPS validation, but our overall 
product is in process.  Once the full product has been validated, we will 
update the site from Compliant to Validated.

Looks interesting, but I notice they say "FIPS Compliant" rather than "FIPS 
Validated." This means lack the money to go through the validation process, 
lack the confidence they could pass the validation process, or the person who 
designed their web page did not know the difference. Lacking a validated 
implementation of AES means they can't be used to protect sensitive federal 
government data.
