Make sure you have SanDisk SecureAccess completely closed when you do this!!! Have you encrypted something with SanDisk SecureAccess but can't remember the password? Want to recover it? To do this it is really easy. The Kingston DataTraveler 2000, for example, uses this technology and combines it with a physical keypad which makes it even more difficult to breach.Came across this forum post, if it works, awesome for you but it means SecureAccess is a pretty sad form of 'protection' surprise surprise: The encryption technology used by SecureAccess is AES 128-bit which is good enough to defend your data against hackers, and regular people won’t even try to crack that.īut if you need stronger protection against a common attack, like brute force, AES 256 bit encryption is recommended. The folder contains your encrypted files with seemingly random names and they are useless without the password. You might have noticed a new vault folder appears.

Create a strong password and add its hint if necessary. If yours didn’t have the program, you can download it from here and copy the installer file to the USB Drive.ģ. First, plug in the drive, run File Explorer, and open the USB Drive.Ģ. In this example, I’m using the extremely tiny SanDisk Cruzer Fit, but this should work on other types as well.ġ. The software is called SanDisk SecureAccess and it comes bundled with a number of SanDisk flash drives, or can be downloaded directly from their website.Īnd since not many users are aware of this program and tend to ignore it, I’m going to show you how to use it on a SanDisk USB stick.
