CAUTION: KEEP YOUR PASSWORD SAFE AND REMEMBER IT. OTHER CipherUSB DEVICES CAN USE THE SAME PASSWORD TO UNLOCK MEDIA ENCRYPTED BY THIS DEVICE. IF THE PASSWORD IS LOST THE DATA IS LOST. THERE IS NO “BACK DOOR” TO UNLOCK OR RECOVER THE PASSWORD OR THE ENCRYPTION KEY.
Using the CipherUSB With Storage Data that is encrypted will only be readable when the device is connected to a computer through a CipherUSB programmed with the correct password. When a device is connected through a CipherUSB, unencrypted data or data that is encrypted using a CipherUSB programmed with a different password will not be readable.
