USB Flash Drive Security
A USB flash drive is a great resource for carrying around important documents. However, that portability introduces some problems. The biggest problem is that you could lose your flash drive with all of that important data. In addition, if you use your flash drive on other PCs, you increase the chance that you could pick up a virus or other malware.
Kingston Technology has introduced the world’s first USB Flash drive that secures 100% of data on-the-fly via 128-bit hardware-based AES encryption, ensuring fail-safe security best practices without IT intervention.
Offering up to 4GB of secure storage, DTE Privacy Edition is a plug-and-play USB device specifically targeted to meet enterprise-level security and compliance requirements. If the drive is ever lost or stolen, data on the DTE Privacy Edition device remains secure.

Footnote : A BIG problem with USB flash drives is that they can easily become corrupted. Usually this is because the drive was removed while Windows was writing data to the drive. The first thing to remember is that you should always use the "Unplug or Eject Hardware" wizard when you remove your drive. To do this, you simply right click on the USB icon in the system tray (bottom right of screen), and select "Safely Remove Hardware."
