[. . . ] Privacy zones thus offer data security for private data; without a password, there is no way to even view the file names stored in the privacy zone or the files themselves. This User Guide will explain how to set up public and privacy zones for increased data security, as well as setting up Windows shortcuts to allow for faster and easier access to the SecureTraveler program. 3 CONNECTING THE DATATRAVELER II Insert your DataTraveler II USB Flash drive into the USB port. Because the DataTraveler is a Hi-Speed USB certified drive, it is important to ensure that the USB port is capable of attaining Hi-Speed USB 2. 0 speeds for best performance. Using a Hi-Speed USB Flash drive on a USB 1. 1 port or on a computer that lacks Hi-Speed USB 2. 0 capabilities will result in the DataTraveler transfer speeds slowing to "original" USB speeds (known as Full-Speed USB).

To set the password, which is required for the privacy zone, enter it in the Password and Confirm Password fields; both passwords keyed in must match exactly for SecureTraveler to accept the password. The Hint field, which is optional to fill in, is there to help you remember a password should you forget it. If you forget your privacy zone password, you will no longer be able to access files stored in the privacy zone; you will be required to reformat and reinitialize the privacy zone to regain the original space, thereby losing all the files stored there. This is done to protect the data ­ you cannot access it without the password defined by the creator of the privacy zone. p.
