Abstract

Encrypted mobile storage device which allows access for reading and writing of encrypted data. After the positive identification of the user takes place before the Host computer'"'"'s communication is accepted. Because all data processing is on the EESMD, ease of use, security of data and most current Host Operating SYstem could provide access to the data. This allows this device to be accessed by the authorized user on virtually any computer system which provides a Powered External Interface for a Data Storage Devices which appropriately compliment this device.

Claims
