CONCLUSION

   Just like with the SECUREDRIVE BT which I reviewed over a year ago the SECUREUSB BT is not only more compact compared to its KP (keypad) brothers (and counterparts) but it’s also the ideal solution for people who either don’t want to rely on having to remember a password/PIN or who just want easy access at the push of a button (or in this case a touch screen). Yes, there’s always the possibility of someone gaining access to your smartphone/tablet and in turn to the SECUREUSB BT but you can always opt to not store the password/PIN in the app if you’re afraid of something like that happening. As for encryption strength as always, I did use several brute force utilities to try and gain access to the drive at hand unsuccessfully. Again, however I am not a hacker/cracker so I can only rely on ready programs and of course I have no reason to dispute all the security certifications given to such products by both government agencies and independent organizations.

   The SECUREUSB BT 64GB USB Flash Drive by SECUREDATA currently retails for USD169 inside the USA (Amazon.com) a price tag which puts it roughly around the same price range as other similar models. There are two issues however with this specific product, global availability (currently at least) and available capacities since 64GB is as high as it gets (again, currently). Both mean that several potential customers may get left out and so I do hope SECUREDATA takes all the necessary steps to resolve them. With that out of the way however the SECUREUSB BT is yet another state of the art secure drive which should cover a large number of people out there and since it works as advertised it gets the Golden Award.
