USB Safeguard is a freeware, portable tool for protecting your data on pen drives (USB Sticks).

As USB Pen drives are a hand held device, there are chances for losing or theft. This tool helps you password protect your documents and folders by encrypting them using AES 256 bits encryption algorithm.

The utility is very simple to use. After downloading the tool, copy it in your USB drive. Then run it. After giving the password click OK.

Then simply drag and drop files and folders from your USB drive into the program’s windows to quickly protect your sensitive documents.
