The Ironkey is FIPS 140-2 certified. I have one and it is fast enough
to play video off of real time. There is a beta OS X client to unlock
it and lock it, but I had to use it in an actual PC to set it up (VMware
did not work for some reson).

Subject: [Fed-Talk] Hardware-based encrypted thumb
drives...recommendations?
Greetings all,
Does anyone have a recommendation for USB thumb drives with
hardware-based encryption? My boss has asked me to choose a secure
thumb drive to issue to all the users in our office (an all-mac
environment).
So far my research has turned up only one product offering any sort of
Mac support. That's the IronKey, which unfortunately still has to be
initially set up on a Windows machine.
Kensington's Traveller series, Imation's Pivot Plus, and Sandisk's
Cruiser Enterprise are all Windows-only offerings.
Unfortunately, the IT director has put his foot down about the
hardware-based encryption requirement. Has anyone here set up an
IronKey through Parallels? My experience with USB devices when using it
has been rather hit-or-miss, so I'm a little leery of ordering some up
and then being unable to configure them! Oh, I almost
forgot....biometrics are off the table as well (due to issues I can't
discuss here).
Thanks,
