Password Protection

OnSpec’s pre-loaded Password Protection S/W lets you password-protect your data and provides a Secure Log on to the “Private Folder” using a SHA-1 Algorithm based authentication. SHA-256 based authentication also is available.

 
OEMs can deploy this software in a variety of configurations and create several password protected folders.
 
An example of how this software works is shown below:
 
  • Plug in USB Drive to PC
  • 2 icons created:
  • 1 Password Protected Private
  •  1 CD partition with Setup Software

In the process of authentication, if the user enters an invalid password, a hint option is triggered. This option will show up on the Properties of the CD Drive icon and the user can then recall his password from reading the hint.

  • Currently this feature is available on USB Flash drives as well as USB Micro drives (Disk based USB Bus powered storage devices). For more details, contact OnSpec sales at sales@onspecinc.com
