USING THE SECURE BACKUP SOFTWARE (WINDOWS ONLY)
If your IronKey is lost or stolen,
you have peace of mind knowing
that your condential information
cannot be seen by anyone but you.
Getting your data back is simple with
IronKey’s Secure Backup software,
which securely restores your data to
a new or existing IronKey.
Secure Backup works by saving an
encrypted backup of some or all
of your IronKey les to your local
computer. You can also restore one
or all of your les.
# Step Description
1 Backing up your IronKey You can create an encrypted backup of a single le or your
entire IronKey to your local computer.
Click the “Secure Backup” button in the IronKey Control
Panel, select which les to back up, and choose where those
les should be backed up to (destination folder). It’s that
simple.
2 Restoring encrypted backups If you ever lose your IronKey, you can restore your data from
an encrypted backup.
Open the Secure Backup software, select the location on
your local computer where the backup is located, and select
which les/folders to restore. If the data is coming from a
different IronKey, you will have to supply the device password
for that IronKey.
