Erki, Why do you want to identify the USB stick? If it is to check if it is an authorised one could you not just store a unique hash on it? If it doesn't have a hash, or the hash does not match what you generated, it's not authorised. Just an MD5 hash might be enough. John On 5 April 2012 12:24, <erki.manniste () webmedia ee> wrote:
Hi, I need to identify a usb stick uniquely and I have been trying to find out weather using just hardwareID is enough? I have heard of a driver that lets you emulate an usb device and set that ID, but quick googleing didn’t give any results. Does anybody know of something like that? Is it possible to (for someone with mediocre hacking skills) to manipulate with these values? Is there a better way to uniquely identify that device?
