I have asked this before, so excuse me:
Anyone have a reasonably simple way to secure a USB memory stick's
data for multi platform use?
Previously I relied on a zip disk for storing portable private
information, which I locked using Iomega zip software with a password
(to open the disk, to read it, I had to enter a password). Now I do
this with USB sticks but minus software lock.
In Get Info, the stick I use is formatted as MS-DOS File System (FAT
16). There are no particular ownership permissions, just says "You
can read and write"
Want to track down any software that can be used on any USB stick to
do what the Iomega folk did for their zips.
Any hope?
Otherwise I willl have to stuff about with encrypting the actual
text and knowing me, I am likely to make some idiosyncratic thing
that will work for me but at the cost of much time...
