SanDisk rolls out RSA-packin' Cruzer Enterprise flash drives

It looks like anyone that makes regular use of an RSA key for one reason or another could soon have a new favorite USB flash drive, with SanDisk announcing the availability of so-called "two-for-one" Cruzer Enterprise drives, which provide both secure date storage and RSA SecurID software tokens for two-factor authentication (eliminating the need for a separate hardware authenticator). The drive is also apparently no slouch when it comes to the usual storage security measures, with it boasting 256-bit AES encryption, and a setup process that requires users to create complex passwords before they're able to make use of the drive. No word on pricing just yet, but you'll apparently be able to get the drive in your choice of 1, 2, 4, or 8GB varieties, with each boasting a respectable read speed of 24MB per second and a write speed of 20MB per second.
