USB Lockit is a Windows utility that helps users prevent unauthorized access to confidential information stored on USB drives. It is necessary to enter the correct keyphrase to decrypt protected items.

How it works

The first step is to copy the downloaded executable package to the target partition. There is support for the FAT32 and exFAT file systems. After that you can launch the software and specify the custom pin code up to 6 digits in length. Clicking the Lock button encrypts all information on the drive, including:

Photos;
Text documents;
Video clips;
Compressed archives and more.

Users are able to attach the protected external storage device to any machine and enter the correct password to decrypt underlying files. It is important to mention that forgetting the combination will lead to irreversible data loss.

Potential benefits

Similar to CryptBox, the software provides an additional layer of protection against the theft of intellectual property and copyrighted materials. It offers you robust security without the high cost. Moreover, USB Lockit is portable and does not require a separate installation. This is particularly helpful when managing multiple machines.
