Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -With encryption, your data is translated into an unreadable format that can only be unscrambled with a password or decryption key. This means that if someone were to take your encrypted USB flash drive, they wouldn’t be able to read or access your files without the decryption key.

Detailed explanation-2: -It’s highly recommended that you don’t store sensitive data on a USB flash drive and instead opt for more secure storage devices to keep your data safe. Their small size makes them easy to transport, but also easy to lose or have stolen.

Detailed explanation-3: -Simply right-click the drive in Finder, select Encrypt, and add a password. The process starts instantly and can take a few minutes, depending on the size of your USB stick. Shortly, you’ll have an encrypted and password-protected USB drive.

Detailed explanation-4: -A removable media policy-also known as a USB device usage policy, portable storage device policy, or removable storage device policy-is a type of information security policy that dictates the acceptable use of portable storage devices such as USB flash drives, external hard drives, and tape drives.
