Lock USB 1.0.2

Lock USB 是另一款經典的軟體，幾乎不需要多做解釋。Lock USB 是什麼，從名稱就能看出端倪。Lock USB 可以為你的 USB 裝置加上密碼保護，除了持有密碼的人之外，任何人都無法存取 USB 裝置上的資訊。

將檔案和資料儲存在 USB 裝置上最大的缺點之一就是安全性。在頻寬受限或有限制的情況下，USB 隨身碟是傳輸大量資料的最佳方式之一。但安全性問題始終存在。畢竟，USB 本質上就是「隨插即用」，任何人都能使用。使用像 Lock USB 這樣的工具，可以為你多增加一層安全保障。

USB Lock 使用起來非常簡單。下載檔案也小得驚人，安裝後的檔案同樣如此。除了保護日常使用的 USB 隨身碟之外，它也能為所有 USB 外接硬碟提供密碼保護，這點很不錯。而且它能在幾秒鐘內完成保護。這同樣很棒，對於任何想為資料增添額外安全層的人來說，都是一大福音。

USB Lock 最大的特色之一，就是它不像其他 USB 密碼軟體，它能在所有作業系統上鎖定 USB 裝置，包括 Windows、Mac，甚至各種不同版本的 Linux。它也支援多種檔案系統，例如 FAT32、NTFS 和 exFAT。

Lock USB 速度也很快，而且不需要系統管理員權限就能執行（如果你不知道這是什麼意思，別擔心，這不影響使用；如果你懂，那這大概是件好事）。它的使用者介面也應該能吸引所有使用者，無論你的技術程度如何。介面直觀，所有選項都能透過熟悉的下拉式選單按鈕找到。Lock USB 還有一些實用的功能，例如可以隱藏 USB 裝置上的檔案和資料夾，或限制可執行檔的存取。

USB Lock 能讓你對 USB 裝置上保護的資料感到安心。開發者表示，密碼保護是萬無一失的，能將資料保存在安全加密的保險庫中。資料本身並未加密，但包覆資料的「外殼」已加密，使得資料幾乎不可能被存取。

使用 USB Lock 應該能讓你對資料感到安心，即使裝置遺失或被竊也一樣。我們試用過，而且很喜歡。

Lock USB is another one of those classic pieces of software that doesn’t really any explanation. The clue to what Lock USB is, is in the title. Lock USB can password-protect your USB so that no one else can access the information held on the USB device except the person with the password.

One of the biggest downsides to storing files and data on USB devices is security. One of the best ways to move lots of data around, especially when there are bandwidth restrictions or limits is by using USB drives. But there are always issues with security around them. After all, USB is by its nature supposed to be ‘plug-and-play,’ so anyone can use it. Using something like Lock USB can give you an extra layer of security.

USB Lock is easy to use. The download is also ridiculously small, as are the final installed files. As well protecting your everyday USB memory sticks, it can also password-protect all USB external hard-drives, which is nice. It can also do it in seconds. Which again, is nice, and a positive boon for anyone who want to add that extra layer of security to their data.

One of the best features of USB Lock is that unlike some other USB password software, the program also keeps USB drives locked on all operating systems like Windows, Mac, and even all the different flavors of Linux. It also works across a large variety of file systems such as FAT32, NTFS, and exFAT.

Lock USB is also fast, and doesn’t require admin privileges to run (if you don’t know what that means, don’t worry about it, it doesn’t matter. If you do, then that’s probably a good thing.) The user interface should also appeal to all users, whatever their tech level. It’s intuitive, and all the options can be found with familiar drop-down style menu buttons. Lock USB also has some nice features such as being able to hide files and folders on the USB device if you want to, or limit access to executable files.

USB Lock gives you peace of mind over whatever data you have secured on your USB devices. Its creators state that the password protection is fool-proof and keeps your data in secure encrypted lockers. The data itself is not encrypted, but the ‘shell’ around it is, making the data next to impossible to access.

Using USB Lock should give you peace of mind over your data, even if the device is lost or stolen. We tried it, and we liked it.
