The included security software, the description is missing in the Amazon, is housed on its own, not (!) Erasable partition (CDFS format). Also on the Transcend website is nothing to read about it. Since the partition is the first, the stick is not recognized by my CD player since it only supports FAT.
But the joke is that security software itself, as it only runs with administrator privileges. This applies not only for the establishment of a protected partition, but also to access it! A USB flash drive with password protection I use if I move in an uncertain environment; So for example on holiday, in an internet cafe or similar. In such an environment is the probability that I have on a computer administrator rights equal to zero. How am I to please access the backed up data with a password ??? I can not imagine a requirement profile that satisfies the chosen solution.
The Transcend Support wrote down a request (quote) "We offer the JetFlash in black JetFlash 600 as at, the same properties, no encryption software". This recommendation I can only agree with me.
