SECUREUSB BT OVERVIEW
Thank you for purchasing the SecureUSB BT Model (‘USB’ hereafter). It’s an easy to use, hardware encrypted, password activated USB 3.0 USB. This Bluetooth® capable model uses an application via wireless user-authentication on a smartphone—iOS and Android. (Apple iOS includes Apple watch and iPad.)
The SecureUSB uses military grade XTS-AES 256-bit hardware encryption, which encrypts all data stored on it in real-time. It works on all computer and embedded systems that support standard USB protocol.
Should your USB get lost or stolen, rest assured that all data on it is protected by military grade encryption and cannot be accessed without entering the password via the SecureData Lock App.
Note: For extra security with multiple users, the Remote Management Model allows a User and an Admin password as well as allowing the admin to remotely make settings to Users’ USBs. This makes it perfect for corporate and government deployment (not covered in this manual.)
Your USB may have Cloud Backup and built-in Antivirus features installed. For more information, please contact Support at SecureData™.
Requirements
The USB must be connected to a computer for use. It works on Windows, Mac, Android, Linux, or Chrome operating system, or any host such as an embedded system. The computer/host must have a USB 2.0 port, minimum.
Included: • 1 USB • 1 Quick Start Guide
Safety Information
Do not expose the USB to water or moisture.
Resetting the USB will delete all stored data as well as all passwords.
Forgetting your password will render the USB inaccessible. There is no ‘backdoor.’
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the device.
