Lexar to Incorporate Encryption into Professional CompactFlash Cards

Lexar Media has announced plans to include encryption technology into its Professional CompactFlash(TM) cards, which will provide security when used with compatible digital cameras. Once configured, digital content stored on the memory card can only be accessed via the digital camera(s) with the corresponding encryption key or via a PC with a valid username and password. This unique security system utilizing the memory card and the camera offers a secure digital imaging solution.

Nikon will be the first camera company to incorporate Lexar's technology into a digital camera. Nikon is incorporating the new security technology into the Nikon D2X digital SLR.
