USB flash drives – Useful tool or security nightmare?
Stealing information – or just reading or copying it without permission – is a lot easier now. All you have to do is stick a USB thumb drive into a port, copy some files, and take the drive back into your pocket.
Bad guys can use them to steal your files, your financial information, and your identity. You’re very careful about encrypting your backup files, and the information that you send over the Internet. But you’re probably not protecting your USB ports, which means someone could copy important PC files to a USB thumb drive. These USB thumb drives fit easily into pocket or purse.
