How do you password protect your usb.

[Kenneth]

Hello everyone,

I am starting a new discussion on this board about how do people password protect their usb data on usb drive.

As far as I am concerned,I use a software that can easily password protect my folders on my machine as well as on my usb,the name of this software is Folder Lock,its an encryption software that can password protect my cds dvds and usb also.I found this software on the foloowing link,

I would like you people to share your thoughts with me or your personal experiences of using any security software.Your contribution would be highly appreciable.

Regards,

Kenneth.

Folder Lock is not a very good way ( I found a bug on the very first day of using it)
I mostly dont need to password protect my files

 

[Kenneth]

Yes you are right,Ive also faced this kind of problems but it was the older version that caused me some trouble,but now the new version is good,many of my friends are also using this program and they say that its good.

My pendrive has a finger-print protection and in-built password protection as well.

your pen drive may protect your data but Folder Lock can protect data on usb, cd/dvd,pendrives and can also hide the data so that no one can sneak into your data.

^^Seems you are more interested in advertising folderlock

Finerprint protection

whats makes U think that I am advertising any thing,If I would find any thing that is good for every one and is advantageous for everyone than why shouldn't I share it with everyone.

I don't know what makes people think like that..pretty much discouraging

^^But you know it is not a freeware, and not many are working Tom, Dick and Harry here. Lots of guys here are students. So a freeware alternative is always better for them.

Truecrypt is one such thing I like as an altenative.

mr thinkfree now what do u like to say about that truecrypt guy,whats he doing here,i am not compelling anyone to use this software,I like one thing and discussed it,if you are not comfortable with that then I cant do any thing.

 

[dheeraj_kumar]

I recommend truecrypt as well. Its free, it has plenty more features compared to folder lock, and its not advertised by spambots in forums.

 

[Kenneth]

I have used Truecrypt and it has many bugs thats why its free, and I am not spamming any thing, If I like something then I'll share it with every one,It seems that you are trying to advertise Truecrypt on my thread.....chchchchch

 

[Faun]

^^lol free doesn't mean it has many bugs. You got it all wrong. Read the manual first.

Let the consumer decide which is better, a forum is meant to troubleshoot problems. So I posted an alternative.

 

[Kenneth]

Well I am not forcing any one to use Folder Lock, I am only sharing my experience..It depends upon you to choose what is right.
