Ransomware is a growing threat to the evolution of cyber criminals techniques in an attempt to part you from your money. Typically, the malicious software either lock victim’s computer system or encrypt the documents and files on it or in some cases both, to extort money from victims.</div>

Cyrus encourages system administrators and IT professionals not to pay the ransom to the cyber criminals. Instead, they should first remove the infected machine from the corporate network to prevent the spreading of malware.</div>

<div style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Once this is done, the users should then attempt to identify the type of ransomware their machine is infected with. They should take images of the encrypted box before removal for later analysis.</div>

The USB flash drives or memory sticks are an excellent way to store and carry data and applications for access on any system you come across. With storage spaces already reaching 256 gigabytes, nowadays USB drives are often larger than past's hard drives.</div>
<div style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<br style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;" /></div>

Thanks to increased storage capacity and low prices, you can easily store all your personal data on a tiny, easy-to-carry, USB memory stick.</div>

<div style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
If you are not aware, the leading cause of data breaches for the past few years has been the loss or theft of laptops and USB storage devices.</div>
<div style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<br style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;" /></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
However, USB flash memory sticks are generally treated with far less care than laptops, and criminals seeking for corporate devices could cost your company a million dollars loss by stealing just a $12 USB drive.</div>
<div style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<br style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;" /></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
By throwing light on the threats of USB drives, I’m not saying that you should never use a USB memory drives. Rather…</div>
<div style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<br style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;" /></div>

<br style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;" /></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Losing USB flash drives wouldn’t be so concerning if the criminals were not granted immediate access to sensitive data stored in it.</div>

Instead of relying merely on passwords, it's essential for businesses to safeguard their data by encrypting the device.</div>

Yes, it is easy to create an encrypted USB drive in Ubuntu so that, at least you could rest easy after the loss of a USB drive knowing that your data is secure.</div>

<div style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
So without wasting much of your time, let’s get to know how to create an encrypted USB drive in Ubuntu.</div>
<div style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<br style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;" /></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<h3 style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;">
Getting Ready</h3>
</div>
<div style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<br style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;" /></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Before you can actually encrypt your USB flash drive in Ubuntu, you need to install the cryptsetup utility on your Linux system, which could be easily done by executing the following command:</div>
<div style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;">
<i style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;">sudo apt-get install -y cryptsetup</i></blockquote>
</div>
<div style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Once installed, insert the USB flash drive you’d like to encrypt into your computer, but make sure that everything that is on the drive is backed up!</div>
<div style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<br style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;" /></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Because, the encryption process requires your USB flash drive to be wiped, and anything currently on it will be lost if the drive is not backed up!</div>
<div style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<br style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;" /></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<h3 style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;">
<b style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;">Encrypting the USB drive</b></h3>
</div>
<div style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<br style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;" /></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Once you made sure that your drive’s contents are backed up, plug in your USB drive and open Disk Utility from the Dash.</div>

<div style="background-color: #f2f2f2; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Now, select your flash drive from the list on the left side and click on either the Stop button or Unmount partition icon present just below the highlighted partition.</div>
<div style="background-color: #f2f2f2; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">

Next, click on the Gears icon present in the same line and then choose “Format”. You will get the following window:</div>

<div style="background-color: #f2f2f2; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
You can choose either quick or slow Erase options (although slow erase is technically safer), and then make sure to choose “<i style="margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;">Encrypted, compatible with Linux systems (LUKS +Ext4)</i>” in Type.</div>
<div style="background-color: #f2f2f2; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">

<div style="background-color: #f2f2f2; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Further, you can type a name for the flash drive in the Name field, set a password of your choice for it and click on Format.</div>
<div style="background-color: #f2f2f2; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">

<div style="background-color: #f2f2f2; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
The format process may take some time depending on your selection of Erase option. Once completed, pull your USB flash drive out and re-insert again. You will see the following prompt:</div>
