USING THE IRONKEY PASSWORD MANAGER 

The IronKey Password Manager connects to the onboard Firefox browser, or to Internet Ex-

plorer (versions 6 or 7) on your computer, automatically lling in your saved passwords so you

can log directly into your online

accounts. The IronKey Password

Manager can securely store your

sensitive online identity informa-

tion, including usernames, pass-

words, credit card numbers and

addresses. It can even generate

strong passwords for you, so that

you can really lock down your

online accounts. Not having to

type out your passwords provides

added protection from keyloggers

and other crimeware.

IronKey’s Password Manager also allows you to back up your encrypted Password Manger data

to your Online Security Vault, synchronize password data between IronKeys, or, if your IronKey

is ever lost or stolen, securely restore all your passwords to a new IronKey. Only you can access

and decrypt your passwords.

The IronKey Password Manager does not store your passwords in a le on the le system of

the ash drive, so malware will not be able to simple copy off your password database.

Step Description

1 Adding Portable Bookmarks To make a bookmark work in both the onboard

Firefox and the local PC’s Internet Explorer, simply

click the ‘Add Website” button on the IronKey Toolbar.

This will add it to your Portable Bookmarks list, which

you can access by clicking “Portable Bookmarks”.

2 Adding online accounts The IronKey Password Manager uses a self-learning

approach to capturing your logins to your online ac-

counts. To store a login, simply log into a site as you

normally would. The IronKey Password Manager will

prompt you to ask if you want to store this password

securely on your IronKey.

The next time you return to that website, you will be

asked if you want to log in with that username, or, if

you added it to your Portable Bookmark list when you

created the login, you can select the website from your

Portable Bookmarks in the IronKey Toolbar and the

IronKey Password Manager will automatically log you

into that website.
