Should You Get an Encrypted USB Drive?

What are the different kinds of encrypted USB drives out there?

There are several types of encrypted USB flash drives on the market. In this video we go over three from Amazon. One is from Kingston and requires a password, one has a fingerprint sensor, and a third has a built in keypad to unlock before even plugging in the thumb drive. The encryption is different for each encrypted flash drive, but each has other advantages and disadvantages.

I already have an encrypted toothbrush *i don't need this*





EDIT: *OH SHIT I FORGOT TO ENCRYPT MY TOOTHPASTE*

can't i just put a password protected 7z file on a generic usb drive?

Problem with finger print security is that it is not safe from court order access since finger prints are not private. A pass code i.e. number can be considered court safe.

I just write everything down on paper in an encrypted code, and bury it in my backyard.

My mom works for the DOD and had a spare Kingston DataLocker encrypted thumb drive, so she gave it to me. It's a bit older and only 8GB, but I like it. Plus it's black anodized aluminum and waterproof.

When it comes to tech videos your channel is the first one I go to. Been following ThioJoeTech even before you transfered here. Keep up the good work! 😊

Apricorn Aegis for the win. Comes as a 512GB version with USB 3.0. The best of the best, unexploited as of Blackhat 2018. The others are garbage, can be opened and by way of debug ports can be breached easily.

Finally, a place to store my pirated movies.

Hit like if u agree

thanks for the nice review. while you were reviewing a very small cap version, we have a lot of size capacities in our Secure Key products--ranging from 8GB on up to 1TB.

I just realized. If you want more layers of security with that keypad flash drive, you could use Bitlocker and an encrypted 7z file in addition to the keypad

Just get normal thumbdrive and encrypt it with luks or EFS drive

On Apricorn Aegis, what happens after 5 years when battery is dead? Still works or totally reset?

[douglasruth]

Who needs encryption, I have a gun for that.

[DialMMicrocontrollr]

Used the Kingston datatraveler for at least 4 years and happy with it
