To develop a light-weight encryption system that automatically encrypts files on a removable storage device such as USB flash drives and/or MP3 players. It features a 'master key' feature that allows an organization to recover encrypted files from any employee's USB drive.

This project aims to develop a lightweight program that will be placed inside a thumb drive. It automatically installs upon insertion or can be initiated manually. It sits in the background and does its work without much intervention by the user. The user will be prompted for his password in order to encrypt/decrypt.
