Re: USB encrypted

Vague question,  but encryption is not anti virus. If the entire usb's file system is encrypted then viruses can't 
properly infect until you decrypt it. Seeing as you will need to decrypt in order to use the data on the flash then the 
window for infection opens when you mount the usb.
