Integral Secure 360 not really useful

[SimpleSi]

I just got some Integral Secure 360 2GB drives - they were cheap - turns out too cheap

 

Unlike previous secure drives that basically present as say drive E: as a CD-ROM with the unlock prog and drive F: as the protected drive that isn't available until you've unlocked it, this one just has an encrypted folder that you have to access via its own interface.

 

e.g if working with a document, you'd have to save it somewhere and then copy and paste it using the proprietary prog to get the file encrypted.

 

So no good if using for storing/saving reports direct to pen drive

 

And each one needs registering (to protect the wonderful encryption prog form being stolen!) before it can be used so that's a lovely job for me before they are handed out to the teachers

 

Shame as I bought "hardware" ones to save my time

 

Never mind - they'll work fine as normal ones

Thanks for posting this, saved our school wasting money on the cheaper models.

 

I've used the Integral Crypto Drives without issues, so will be purchasing these instead.
