Kanguru’s Defender Elite secure USB flash drive is now shipping standard with BitDefender’s anti-virus service. One year of virus protection is included in the purchase price of the drive. To configure or start a manual scan, simply open the taskbar menu and select “Antivirus”.
Defender Elite anti-virus not only protects your thumb drive but can also be used to scan and disinfect the host computer’s hard drive or other portable drives that are connected to the workstation.
Defender Elite units that were purchased prior to March 2010 can be upgraded to anti-virus service by clicking the “Check for Updates” menu option. The free 1-Year service will begin at that point and virus definitions will automatically be imported by the device.

This year, Kanguru is exhibiting the FIPS 140-2 certified Kanguru Defender Elite secure flash drive. Designed specifically to meet US Government specs, this device uses 256AES Hardware Encryption and features built-in Anti-virus protection. Federal Government agencies are still scrubbing infected computers nearly a year and a half after the Conficker virus outbreak in late 2008. The risk from this type of USB-spread virus can be greatly reduced by using secure devices like Defender Elite.
