Who needs disk drive security software

Advanced Drive Protector is intended for PC users who want to protect, hide and lock
their local, network, Floppy and USB drives, and disable the AutoRun feature for
them to ensure both security and privacy. This software lets you apply a range of
security options to individual drives ranging from hiding options to access security
restrictions.

The main advantages of Advanced Drive Protector

The main advantages of the program are robustness and simplicity. When you use
Advanced Drive Protector, you get a great protection in a very simple and elegant
way. To activate protection for a drive, you just click an appropriate checkbox with
your mouse.

Hide the drives you do not want the others to know about

When you hide certain drives, you make them invisible to other computer users. Just
click on the Hide checkboxes located in the drive letter group boxes for the drives
you want to hide and press the Apply button. After you reboot your computer the
drives you hid will disappear from My Computer.

Disable access to the drives with the sensitive information

If you keep sensitive information on some of your drives, you may want to disable
access to those drives. The program lets you safely disable access to any drive
letters you want in a very elegant manner. Just click on the Lock checkboxes that
correspond to the drives you need, apply changes and then reboot your computer.
After reboot, the drives you selected will disappear from My Computer.

Disable the Autorun feature for certain drives

The Autorun feature is one of the worst security breaches in any Windows system. If
a user inserts an infected USB drive or a CD/DVD disk, the virus residing on the
disk may run and infect your system. This program lets you change this behavior.
When you disable the Autorun feature, any inserted drives and disks will be ignored
by Windows. To activate the Autorun protection, just click on the Disable Autorun
checkboxes corresponding to the drive letters you need, apply changes and reboot
your computer.

Password-protect your security settings in Advanced Drive Protector

Once you protect all the necessary drives, you should password-protect Advanced
Drive Protector to prevent an unauthorized access to the security settings you
enforce. Your access password, if assigned, will be asked every time you open
Advanced Drive Protector.

Professionally designed user interface lets you learn fast

The user interface of Advanced Drive Protector is professionally designed and as a
result is strait forward. You do not have to spend your precious time learning how
to work with the program; you just start it and use it like you already know the
program. In addition to that there is an online manual you can read if you still
have any questions.
