IronKey, maker of the world's most secure flash drive, today announced

expansion efforts into more worldwide markets. IronKey's new office will help
support its rapid growth in Europe.

IronKey has appointed Jon Fielding as sales director in the UK office.
Fielding will head up the company's efforts to market and sell its secure USB
memory sticks throughout Europe. Fielding brings over 18 years of experience
in IT and sales, most recently leading international sales teams as director
of strategic accounts at Tumbleweed, which was acquired by Valicert.

"Having worked in the security space for many years, I am excited to work
with a company that has built its product line with security in mind from the
ground up," said Jon Fielding, director of sales for IronKey UK. "I look
forward to working closely with our strong partner channel in EMEA to address
the rapidly growing market demand for secure mobile data storage solutions."

The company selected the UK because of its central location for ease of
travel throughout Europe and proximity to IronKey partners. IronKey's rugged,
waterproof and tamper-resistant USB memory sticks with cross-platform support
and remote policy enforcement enable solutions that can be rapidly deployed
in heterogeneous environments with complete control. Featuring always-on
