    Acer eDataSecurity because you can make it so you have to swipe a coded card to unlock data.

    What about securing files on a USB flash drive? I want to be able to access my files but if its lost/stolen i dont want anyone else getting access.

    Is this possible?

    Try one of those products, made by a german software company.

    Scroll down to Encryption on this site. There are some free encryption software programs linked that even run on a USB key!
