HOW TO PASSWORD A FLASH DRIVE

Flash Drives are convenient, compact and affordable devices that provide portability and peace-of-mind for those who need to back up or transfer important data from one computer to another. To safeguard valuable data in case of flash drive theft or loss, you should password protect your flash drive. While some removable drives include factory password protection, others don't automatically provide protection. Many password and encryption programs are free while others are available for purchase.
