The built-in 256-bit AES hardware encryption in the My Passport hard drive, combined with WD Security software, ensures that your content remains confidential and protected at all times. You only need to activate password protection and set your own password. To facilitate the return of the My Passport hard drive if it gets lost, you can even add a "Please return to" message in the password entry field.
