Small, Practical and quality. That’s three words that represent one of the USB stick as file storage media. USB stick will of course continue to survive until the next few years because it is very practical and can store data up to the size of GB. One of the things that might annoy you is when you switch the USB stick into the hands of others, can borrow a friend or even disappear. What makes a headache and feeling a loss instead of the USB stick, but from the data stored in the USB stick. Because the existing data in USB stick is an important data and privacy, such as the coursework, or thesis office data.
In order for your existing data in the USB stick does not read anyone else, we recommend you first to protect with a password set. I will explain two applications for protection on a USB stick using USB stick Security and Master Voyager.

This method uses the help of Master Voyager software download here http://www.4shared.com/file/mlz5imtb/Master_Voyager.htm.
The steps for partitioning and provide a password on a USB stick that are as follows:
- On the menu click the icon USB stick storage.

- Once completed you Close and Exit the program.
The measures for protection are as follows:
