From NewSoftwares:
USB Secure helps you password protect USB drives, Thumb drives, Memory cards, External drives and Flash drives. It supports plug and play and runs automatically once a USB drive is plugged in, asking you the password for it. USB Secure is hassle free and it doesn't need a rocket scientist to master. USB flash drives are the most popular way to move data from one PC to another. They are small in size but can carry gigabytes of data. They are easy to use, convenient, affordable, but at the same time they pose a security risk and can be easily lost, stolen or misplaced. A secure USB drive with password protection is a must these days as the data that it contains may cost you millions of dollars if stolen or lost. With USB Secure your USB flash drives and all other external storage devices can be very easily password protected. An easy to use setup program will guide you to put the program on your USB drive. It can automatically detect all such drives currently plugged into your PC. After installing simply run the software, and set and confirm a password to protect USB drive and all the data in it. To access your data again, it is important that you plug-in your USB drive into the computer and choose the Open this USB drive with password option from the Windows Autoplay that pops up every time you plugin your USB drive. You can also double click the USB drive in your PC to launch the program. To unprotect your secure USB drives, click Unprotect and enter correct password to access your data again. Another great feature of USB Secure is that it doesn't require any Administrator rights to run and therefore there is no need to install it at the other end to retrive the protected data. The program also supports plug & play and ask for a password immediately when the drive is plugged-in.
What's new in this version: Version 1.7 minor changes have been made to the code to further enhance the overall flexibility of modifying/viewing certain file formats within the virtual drive.

"SEEMS TO BE CREATED FOR ME"
Version: USB Secure 1.6.9
Pros
I found it perfect for me.
Cons
None till now
Summary
As I am a careless guy I misplace things a lot. I was having of USB Secure when I lost my USB, I had many important assignments saved in my USB. One of my friends found my USB and tried to copy my assignments, but he did not get access to them as I was using USB Secure. My friend returned me the USB with a smile and said "Its just useless for me, thanks to your USB Secure"

"BLESSING IN SHAPE OF SOFTWARE"
Version: USB Secure 1.6.9
Pros
Incredibly reliable and easy to use.
Cons
Still trying to find one.
Summary
I am a business persona and I need security for the information related to my business. Portable drives like USB that are easy to lose, so I need some sort of software that can make my business information unreachable. I tried USB Protect, it really is superb. I tested its reliability in every way I could. It is really an unbreakable security check.

"Simple and Secure"
Version: USB Secure 1.6.9
Pros
Very easy to use
Cons
so far it's been working fine.
Summary
I am 65 years old accountant working from home, so, I am not ashamed to say that when it comes to technology, I am a complete dummy. Since everything these days are done through computers, it has been a challenge for me to learn the various types of accounting software. But besides that, the point is that I need to sometimes carry financial documents in a USB Stick, my son advised me that it's not safe to carry such data on USB sticks, losing one of these devices with such data stored on them certainly carries the risk of identity and data theft. He recommended that I purchase USB Secure. I found this software easy to use and seem to work well for my needs.

"Portable data security, redefined."
Version: USB Secure 1.6.9
Pros
Works on all mediums
Cons
Wish more software were like this
Summary
I just purchased a new portable hard-drive, only to be disappointed that it has no security features to protect your private data. Having my fingers crossed, I searched for software to secure portable drives, after a little digging, I found USB Secure. Being skeptical, I tried out the free version, loved it, thus I decided to purchase it. Now, even if I end up losing my portable drive -- like I have done in the past, I know my data cannot be hacked.

"Works with virtually any USB drive"
Version: USB Secure 1.6.9
Pros
No compatibility issues
Cons
Didn't come across any so far
Summary
I purchased a 1 terabyte external hard-drive on black Friday at a bargain price. Right after purchasing I've transferred all my source codes and project files on the hard-drive, what worried me, was that if I lose it, someone could steal my data. Then I searched on download.com for software that locks data on portable drives and that how I ended up purchasing USB Secure.

"Dynamic Data Protection"
Version: USB Secure 1.6.1
Pros
Fast,Reliable and Easy to use
Cons
Couldn't find any as of yet.
Summary
I've tried USB Secure and I have to say, it's the most dynamic and most dependable software I've tried so far. Other similar software doesn't have this level of sophistication as USB Secure. It seems like the developers really did their homework in developing this security software. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Version: USB Secure 1.6.1
Pros
I can protect my college assignments on my USB device
Cons
Can't complain
Summary
I live on campus, and plagiarism is a prevalent issue here. After fearing that I might lose my USB device on which I save my assignments, I decided to purchase USB Secure. The piece of mind I get is priceless, and I only had to spend a few dollars on purchasing it. Now, I know I will never be a victim of intellectual data theft thanks to USB Secure.

"Works on every portable device"
Version: USB Secure 1.6.1
Pros
Works well with all portable storage devices
Cons
It has a class of its own, nothing beats it.
Summary
I own a western digital hard drive, in which I have stored all my important documents and media. I didn't want anyone exploring my files on my WD drive, so I came across USB Secure. After trying it for two days, I purchased it. Purchasing it was the best decision I had made, as I am very happy with its security features.

"USB Secure is useless"
Version: USB Secure 1.6.1
Pros
Easy to use
Cons
USB Secure does NOT protect your private data. Once you have supposedly "protected" your data in an encrypted drive this data is still easily visible abd accessible through such free software as "Search Everything". Just do a wildcard search (*. followed by doc or wmv or jpg or whatever you want to look for) and the software will reveal everything you thought was hidden. This problem has been broufght to the attention of the software developers but is still not fixed.
Summary
A waste of money
-
"Quick, speedy data protection!"
Version: USB Secure 1.6.1
Pros
By far the fastest software in its class.
Cons
Speed is all I care about.
Summary
I deal with all sorts of sensitive data, because I am entrusted with people's social security numbers, driver's licenses copies, birth certificates and other extremely private information. Therefore, I need fast and trustworthy software to transport large chunks of private information, and USB Secure helps me do that.
