Having promised to write another post sooner, time has flown by; who knew each week in UK lockdown could feel so fleeting?! A few weeks ago I wrote about Datakey RUGGEDrive, this time it is the turn of Datakey Serial Memory. Serial memory is where it all started for Datakey and is still the core range. Is Serial Memory for you?…
I wrote this post back in week 8 of lockdown in UK…….. I’ll admit that I’m starting to feel a little fatigued; especially now that the temperature has dropped and the four of us are cooped up in the house! I shouldn’t grumble though: in the UK we really have had the most remarkable run of good weather, which has…
We currently live in strange times. (Understatement of the century.) Most of us have been cooped up at home for a long time now, which comes with both joys and challenges. On one hand, I’m really enjoying spending more time just the four of us, as a family unit, well most of the time, anyway! On the other, it isn’t…
In one of my previous blogs in early February I warned of how easily software viruses can be – and in some cases are engineered to be – transferred via commercially available, standard form factor removable memory devices, such as USB sticks / thumb drives. Though that blog was less than two months ago a lot has happened since, and…

In terms of our operation, we’re operating as close to normal as possible, whilst ensuring we look after the health of our team. The majority of staff are working from home, with…
We’re a good few weeks into 2020 now and it can’t have escaped your attention that cybersecurity is an extremely hot topic for the year. (It’s also our focus for all trade shows at which we’re exhibiting this year) Why are we so focused on cyber? While corporate giants will remain high-profile targets for cyber-attacks, it’s the SMEs (many of…

We’re exhibiting at the Southern Manufacturing and Electronics Show at Farnborough International in February as usual and it would be great to see you there. Over on our stand (D85), we’ll be focusing on cyber security and offering loads of advice about: How to protect data transferred via removable memory devices How to reduce the risk of malware being introduced…
We’ve written about the Raspberry Pi before and for good reason: it really has taken the world by storm since it was released seven years ago. And now, not content with “the world”, it appears to be taking space by storm too. As reported by the BBC, the Pi was used by UK satellite company SSTL to take pictures of…
