Create a secure USB Data Safe
IÂ’am going to show you how to create a secure usb data safe that can be used to store sensitive data. Secure means it is encrypted and will only be encrypted if you need the data that is saved on the stick. This method is also working with other removable media such as zip drives and hard disks.
There are some prerequisites that have to be met: You need of course the software that makes all of this possible - True Crypt. You also need a mobile device and administrators privileges on the computer you intend to run true crypt to decrypt the data on the device - which means that this setup wonÂ’t work if you intend to use it on e.g. public computers or computers with no administrators privileges.
