摘要：A system for protecting data held on a hard drive of a laptop or other personalcomputer from unauthorised access uses a one-time pad based encryption anddecryption key stored on a removable storage medium, such a USB flash drive ormemory stick. The key is produced by a random thermal electronic noise sourcesubjected to entropy distillation to maximise the randomness of the data. The key ispreferably in two parts, each a onetime pad, one located in the personal computer andthe other on the removable storage medium. Driver software for implementing themethod is provided on the removable storage medium for installation in the personalcomputer, wherein a virtual disk drive is created which the user drag folders or files into,thereby causing the folders and files to become encrypted. The encrypted folders andfiles may be backed up to other storage devices, and cannot be read without the key.Deleting folders or files from the virtual drive causes them to be either decrypted ordeleted from the hard drive. The USB flash drive storing the key may be kept on a keyring.
