Design of a novel USB crypto bridge device

Information technologies have emerging use of portable drives. Hence, the readability and security of the content is at great risk in the event that it is lost or stolen. An effective solution to this issue is the use of removable disks in encrypted form. In this paper, a novel USB device that has cryptobridge capability is proposed.

data is reduced. Moreover, there are several security features that make the proposed device safer to use. The
problem of security in data transfer with a low data cost per gigabyte is a hot topic for novel devices. Therefore,
the proposed device is a secure and low-cost solution for these problems.
