Integral INFD32GB360SEC3.0 360 Secure 32 GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive with 256 Bit Encryption Software

I tried purchasing an encrypted USB last year which resulted in many returns and repurchases because nothing was compatible with my Mac. This year, I had to relive the encrypted USB nightmare but this product has absolutely saved me! It was the first one I tried, didn’t require me to have to read lengthy and confusing instructions, worked perfectly with my Mac (OS Monterey Version 12.6.6) easy to just plug and play, no fuss, no stupid complicated password requirements.. I couldn’t be happier! Thankyou for saving me from the stress I went through last year!

Looks good and cheaper than some more flashy encryted memory sticks I would highly recommend this as long as you don't mind the software being on the complicated side. I have other secure sticks which are more intuitive but this one, ehilst thorough, doesn't make life easy. The set up is *relatively* easy and the 'password reminder' function is neat, as long as you don't have a reminder like "Your Mum's maiden name"... the whole point of a USB stick to store sensitive information is not to make it easy to get into! The encrytion is a high quality type and should be pretty unhacable apart from a long winded 'brute force' attack (another reason to make the password not using common words, relatives names etc.) My main criticism is that once files are on the stick you can't look at them without copying them somewhere else, ie the file list is viewable in the window the software opens but to see what it is you have to copy it somewhere else, such as your PC hard drive. There is no way to get a preview or open the files directly. They have to be decrypted by copying them elsewhere, as I just mentioned. Apart from the lack of convenience this means that the sensitive information you encrypted will be on your PC drive unencrypted now and (even if deleted and the Wastebasket cleared) could probably be recovered by 'accidentally deleted/corruption recovery' software. It would be better if an item could either use some sort of basic built in viewer or, if that would be prohibitably expensive or difficult, at least open directly in a read-only mode so the data is only in the short term memory of the opening program (I imagine much harder to recover by a hacker even a relatively short time after closing the reading program) and never unencrypted on a physical drive.

Easy to use. Compact for storing and travelling with

Given a middle score because Integra Support quickly provided a replacement but both the original and the replacement seemed incompatible with my version of Windows 10. Because of this I would not have any confidence in using this device if I could get it working. My PC has not shown up this issue with any other hardware using USB ports, but in the particular circumstances I do not feel motivated to request a refund.

I bought this to protect all my files, so I dont need to use a password for every one. Unfortunately the product does not allow me to do this, so it is no better than an ordinary cheap stick drive. A waste of money. To make it worse, it no longer works at all, so all my data has been lost

Good security vault and at a good price It gives you the option to use secure or not which i like

Just what I needed to backup some secure files, only problem was there are no instructions on how to use the drive. Comes with a DMG file on the drive, I had to Google it to find out what it was, seems it's an Apple file, maybe that has the instructions I have no idea as I use a PC and could not read it. As others have said you need to copy the file to your PC to decrypt it, I did copy paste to desktop, just remember to delete and empty bin after you finish, even that's not 100% secure. Other than that I'm happy with the drive but could benefit from clearer instructions, that's the reason I gave it 4/5
