USB Safeguard is a portable software program to encrypt and protect data with a password on your removable pen drives using the AES 256 bits encryption. The main purpose of using a USB pen drive is that you can bring your data with you wherever you go. But if you lose your USB pen drive your data also lose. This is dangerous if you have confidential files stored in it. Protect the pen drive with a password. USB Safeguard offers users (novice and expert) a friendly yet extremely powerful security solution that fully protects valuable data stored on USB pen drives. Also, the program has a useful feature that allows you to enter your email or phone if you lose the pen drive. Free version works only with USB Flash drive of size max 16 GB.

How To Password Protect Your USB Flash Drive

Hello Friends, Today we'll discuss about "Password Protect Your USB Flash Drive"

We'll do this by using the Rohos Mini Drive software.

USB drives are simple to carry, but easy to misplace and that can be risky with sensitive information. Rohos Mini Drive is a freeware app that safeguards personal documents by creating a password-protected partition on your flash drive. The download actually installs two programs. One, Rohos Mini Drive, is the partition manager that self-installs as a portable app on the drive when you create the partition. The second, Rohos Disk Browser, is a portable file manager, which can be useful when the encrypted partition can't be read by the host computer.

Operating Rohos Mini Drive is fairly straightforward. Plug in your portable drive and start the program. You should see three choices: Set up USB flash drive, Change password, and Options. Setting up the drive requires choosing a password--that's it. Depending on the size of the drive, creating the partition should happen reasonably quickly. Once the partition has been created, you can change the disk size and partition drive letter. The Rohos Disk Browser displays and manipulate items in the protected partition. Single-click functions include open, saving, deleting, and displaying file properties. Searching and opening the partition is also easily selected from a short pull-down menu.

Rohos Mini Drive includes features to open the protected drive on systems where the user doesn't have administrator rights. That makes this app easy to use anywhere from public library labs to your best friend's system. We can easily recommend this app for all experienced users needing to transport personal files.

Now,Finally for the Download Link-

Write Protect Your USB Flash Drive.

Hello,


        Today I am going to tell you "How To Write Protect You USB Drive"


What is Write Protecting the USB Drive?


       According to me,Write Protecting the USB Drive is to Lock The USB Drive.That means,No one can Delete,Copy,Send Files to your USB Drive. (Works only with software).

Why write protect your USB flash drive ?

When you put your USB flash drive in a pc infected with virus, the virus gets attached to your pen drive and then it infects all computers where it is used. But sometimes we are forced to use pen drive in such pc. So is there any way to prevent virus getting infected in a pen drive ? If your pen drive has a "make read only" switch, then you need to just make it read only before inserting it into a suspected pc. But nowadays most pendrives do not have such "make read only" switch, so the following solution may be handy.


There are Two Ways to Write Protect the USB Drive.


1. Editing the Windows Registry.


2. By Software.


Write Protect by Editing Registery.

1. Open the Registry Editor (Open the “Run” dialog box, type regedit and hit “Enter”).

2. Navigate to the following Registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\
3. Create a New Key named as StorageDevicePolicies. To do this right-click on Control, and click on New->Key and name it as StorageDevicePolicies.

4. Now right-click on StorageDevicePolicies and create a New->DWORD (32-bit) Value and name it as WriteProtect.

5. Double-click on WriteProtect and set the Value data to 1.

Now the right-protection for USB drives is enabled on your computer (no restart required) and thus it would not be possible for anyone or any program to add/delete the contents from yourUSB flash drive. Any attempt to copy or download the files onto the USB drive will result in the following error message being displayed.

"THIS DRIVE IS WRITE PROTECTED."

Note: With Registry Editing,Write Protect may or may not work.It was tested by me and It was unsuccessful So I suggest you all to Use the Software.

in the Protection tab of the software.

Now,To See if the software is really working,Notice the Icon of the "Protection Status" window of the software.If you see a Green Tick Mark then,the USB Has been write protected.

Now,If you Plug-in the USB Write-Protected Drive to any other Computer too,You can't make changes to it,until you have Installed the "USB Write Protect" software on that PC.

To Turn Off the Write-Protect Settings,Just open the software again (this time attach that USB Drive too)

and just Tick the Option of "Disable Write Protect" and Hit the Button "APPLY".

Now Plug-Out your USB Drive and Do the above step again.Now Insert the USB Drive again and See if Red Cross Mark is there in the "Protection Status" tab of the software.If there is Red Mark,then its Write Protect Disabled.
