Hi Jessica,
In the NHS trust that I work within they only allow write access to approved USB sticks so if you're planning to work with a particular trust it might be worthwhile checking directly.
_personally_ I like the self encrypting USB sticks (usually with a little keypad or sometimes a fingerprint scanner). For me it's good because there is no host based software to rely on and they can be usually be used completely cross-platform.
Cheers
Jon

Subject: [data-protection] Advice re encrypted USB / Memory sticks
Hi all,
I was wanting to know if anyone can recommend a company that provides good encrypted USB / Memory sticks, we of course already have a supplier here however we may be looking for another in the future.
I was just wanting to hear any positive stories about what works with existing systems and is user friendly for staff especially within the NHS / public sector.
Many thanks
