If you are commonly storing work-related files on USB Flash drives, then there is a fair chance that you are searching for a solution that enables you to protect the data in the unfortunate event that you would lose the memory stick.

USB Voyager is a light piece of software that allows you to create secure zones on your Flash drive that are encrypted and protected with a password.

The program comes with a sleek and stylish ribbon interface, so the likelihood you can encounter any issues navigating through the menus are close to zero. In the upper section you can learn more information about the USB drive, access the secure zones already created, create a new area and view the contents of the files opened for public.

In the lower section, you can analyze the contents of both the public and secure areas and add new documents, photos, databases and other files with sensitive data.

It is necessary to mention that the application enables you to create a secure area without too much hassle. Simply put, to create a safe zone, you need to specify its name, add a password and allocate how much space you think you need to store the files.

Even though the process is straightforward, you should know that creating the new secure area could take a few minutes, depending on the space you want to allocate. One of the reasons for the delay is that the app uses the AES 256-bit Whirlpool to encrypt the area.

Although it is not common for professionals to carry very sensitive information with them on a Flash stick, it would have been nice if the app included more encryption algorithms so you can pick a weaker or more advanced one.

In the eventuality that you are using a Flash memory stick that you are sharing with other colleagues, then you may want to make sure they cannot access your documents and that the data is safe. USB Voyager can help you build an encrypted section where you can place the digital papers and files that you want to protect.
