 Data
Security on the Move
Why would I need to encrypt the files on my portable
device anyway?
Importance: These types of features
allow medical and other professionals the opportunity to use
top of the line file security software to transport highly
secure data in compliance with HIPAA and Corporate Privacy
Policies. Not only is this appealling to the corporate world,
but it gives the regular home user or student the ability
to keep his/her private files encrypted and password secured.
Nowadays, many people are using Flash drives, mini hard drives
(such as the Apple iPod), and mp3 players (like the Apple
iPod Shuffle) to transport data from one place to the next.
Although the iPod and the iPod Shuffle's main purpose
is to function as an mp3 player it still has the functionality
of any other plug in storage device. With some simple
configuration changes in iTunes, an iPod can become one of
the smallest 20 or 40 gb data storage devices in the world.
By adding encryption functionality to portable data devices,
data retrieval and removal issues become a thing of the past.
No longer would an employee have to worry about losing very
sensitive customer or company information. No one would be
able to see the contents of the portable drive without the
correct password even if it was stolen or lost.
*Icon Lock-iT XP will work on any type of portable storage
device inluding the 20gb hd and 40 gb hd apple
ipods.
**Icon Lock-iT XP works with iTunes to be able to lock and
encrypt your AAC music files.
