 Encrypted USB Drives

Interesting look at an encrypted USB drive. The author uses Linux tools to dig in and evaluate the encryption on an inexpensive hardware encrypted USB drive.

"... vendors tend to economise in the wrong place by incorporating budget encryption. Developing a secure encryption system costs money, and vendors have to find a balance between manufacturing costs, data throughput and security, taking in to account the limited processing power of these controller chips."
