How do you encrypt yours?

February 6th, 2008

USB memory sticks are getting cheaper at the lower end of the storage capacity range (4GB and under) as the latest models sport even larger capacities. So it’s tempting to buy a few of the cheaper sticks rather than one larger model. You could use one for storing your digital photos, another for documents, and a third for video clips.

To secure your data you can encrypt your files (PGP, WinZip) or encrypt the whole drive (Truecrypt) with a growing selection of third party products. Or you can even buy a stick that comes complete with built-in hardware encryption like the Kanguru Defender Pro. You even have a choice of colours.
