Wireless Encryption Mouse – clever little rodent protects your files while you mouse

wirelessencryptionmouse small Wireless Encryption Mouse clever little rodent protects your files while you mouse

This clever little Wireless Encryption Mouse not only does service as a standard wireless mouse but also automatically encrypts any number of folders on your hard disk. As long as the wireless dongle is in the USB slot on your computer, the files are readable. Immediately you remove it, they’re locked. Simple, effective and brilliant. Perfect for laptop travellers. $22.00.

This is not a simple 2.4GHz Wireless Optical Mouse. It features the “Folder Encryption” function that protects your confidential data on PC easily. Without the USB dongle and wireless mouse, the encrypted folder will not be decrypted by other ways. It is especially good for the laptop/netbook user as the notebook they carry around may full of corporate secret data or private data. If the notebook was stolen or left unattended, don’t worry about data security, as they are encrypted!

I think the tiny nano USB connector is a major drawback. Forget that it's plugged into your lappy and your security is screwed. You would think they would make the connector huge with a flashing red light when you power down.
