The KIK-20 Secure DTD2000 System (SDS) is a key fill device developed by Sypris Electronics, Florida, US, under the auspices of the U.S. National Security Agency. It, along with the AN/PYQ-10, is intended to eventually replace the AN/CYZ-10 key fill device, along with older units still in service, and can support a wide variety of cryptographic devices and key types.
The SDS is roughly the same size as the CYZ-10 — 7.4" (188mm) x 4.25" (108) x 1.8" (46mm) — and weighs less than 2.5 lbs (1.1 kg). It uses an XScale processor running at 300 MHz under the Microsoft Windows CE operating system. Cryptographic functions are performed by an internal KOV-21 crypto PC Card. The SDS includes 64 MB of RAM, 32 MB of flash read-only memory, a QWERTY keyboard, half-VGA color display, and a USB port. It also has a 6-pin connector for cabling to NSA standard fill connectors. The keyboard includes two zeroize buttons. It costs US$3700 each.

Famous quotes containing the words secure and/or system:
“Let us hope ... that by the best cultivation of the physical world, beneath and around us; and the intellectual and moral world within us, we shall secure an individual, social and political prosperity and happiness, whose course shall be onward and upward, and which, while the earth endures, shall not pass away.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
“In the course of the actual attainment of selfish ends—an attainment conditioned in this way by universality—there is formed a system of complete interdependence, wherein the livelihood, happiness, and legal status of one man is interwoven with the livelihood, happiness, and rights of all. On this system, individual happiness, etc. depend, and only in this connected system are they actualized and secured.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
