Description
The present invention relates to a USB memory having loss prevention and data security functions. More particularly, the present invention relates to a method for preventing loss and preventing loss of a USB memory by transmitting and receiving certain location information and security information between a USB memory and a smart phone through a Bluetooth connection with a smart phone, And a USB memory having a data security function.
USB (Universal Serial Bus) refers to a PC peripheral port specification that simplifies the task of installing complex PCs and peripherals into a single plug-in. USB memory refers to the storage device that is connected to the above USB. The USB memory has solved the problem of the initial high price and capacity, and is now easily used by anyone.
The USB memory is more inexpensive than other hardware devices in terms of cost, and has a function of protecting personal data by adding a password function in memory use. In particular, the storage of personal data that can be protected on a USB memory is very common, and it is very useful in internet financial transactions that are part of daily life. In other words, USB memory is a strength that storage and archiving of "authorized certificate" which is essential in internet financial transactions and stability of movement and ease of movement is a strength that other memories do not have, Can also be used effectively. The advantages of such a USB memory are more remarkable in comparison with the size of a disc that is inconvenient to carry when storing data using a CD and the requirement of a separate program and a separate program for recording.
Especially, despite the recent development of webhard, which has convenience and price competitiveness, USB memory is widely used while maintaining its own market to store data or programs requiring security.
However, as the storage capacity that can be stored in the USB memory increases and the size of the USB memory itself decreases, data loss due to loss may occur.
In the past, USB memory was relatively expensive, so the loss of the USB memory device itself was perceived as a loss. However, considering that the price of USB memory has recently become low and it can be easily obtained, the loss of USB memory itself The loss of data stored in the USB memory can be perceived as a greater loss. Particularly, although various web hard services that can be used freely and have enhanced convenience have been widely used, the use of a USB memory other than the web hard means that security for data stored in the USB is important . Therefore, the loss of the USB memory itself or the loss or the leakage of the data stored in the USB memory may lead to a personal loss, and there is a problem that secondary damage may occur due to data leakage when considering the characteristics of data stored separately in the USB have.
Therefore, there is a need for a USB memory device capable of having a security function for preventing the loss of data stored in the USB memory, not preventing the USB memory itself from being lost. In addition, considering the recent transactions and utilization of USB memory, when the USB memory is lost, the loss target is stored data rather than the USB memory itself, so a USB memory device having the function of restoring the file stored in the USB memory is required Do.
Prior Art 1 (KR 20-2010-0012581A) is a device for preventing the loss of USB memory, so as to prevent the loss of the USB by connecting the USB with the socket. However, this is to prevent the loss of the USB memory itself, and the configuration for preventing the loss of the USB memory itself is a simple configuration that depends on the line, so that it is not considered that the loss prevention effect is high. When the USB memory is lost, There is a limitation that the above-mentioned problem can not be solved.
The prior art 2 (KR 20-0426002A) is a device for generating a warning sound when a portable MP3 player or the like has a relatively small size, that is, theft of the object to be protected, and can be utilized in case of USB memory theft, , It is difficult to apply to the case of loss by the owner, and in case of theft, there is a difference in the principle of solution of the problem to prevent loss. In addition, there is a disadvantage in that there is a certain limit in terms of security of stored data.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a function of preventing loss of data through interworking of smart phone and Bluetooth and recovering a lost USB memory and further recovering security and data of data stored in the USB memory.
A USB memory having a data loss prevention and data security function according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a connector for an interface with an external terminal; A storage unit for storing data received from the external terminal through the connector; A notification unit informing that the user is in a lost state; A wireless communication unit for pairing with the mobile terminal; And a controller for judging that the wireless communication unit is in a lost state through whether or not the pairing is maintained, and performing security, restoration, or loss prevention function of the data in the storage unit when it is determined that the wireless communication unit is in a lost state; . ≪ / RTI >
The USB memory having the loss prevention and data security function may further comprise a reset button for resetting the mobile terminal information for the pairing.
The USB memory having the loss prevention and data security function may transmit the data of the storage unit to the predetermined web server for the data restoration function.
The USB memory having the loss prevention and data security function may encrypt and store the data of the storage unit in the external terminal for the data restoration function.
In the USB memory having the loss prevention and data security function, the notification unit may turn on the LED, sound output, or transmit lost information to the mobile terminal for the loss prevention function.
The USB memory having the loss prevention and data security function may block the access to the data of the storage unit for the data security function.
The USB memory having the loss prevention and data security function may control the display unit or the interface of the external terminal for the data security function.
The USB memory having the loss prevention and data security function may delete the data of the storage unit for the data security function.
The USB memory having the loss prevention and data security function according to the present invention can prevent loss of the USB memory, prevent data leakage even if it is lost, prevent secondary damage, and recover data.
In more detail, when the USB memory and the smartphone are disconnected from the predetermined distance range through the Bluetooth connection with the smartphone, the smartphone owner is warned to prevent the loss, and the final position of the USB memory To the smartphone so that the lost USB memory can be recovered again.
In addition, according to the security system of the USB memory, it is not possible for others to extract data from the USB memory, and important data included in the USB memory is copied in an encrypted form to a predetermined storage device to prevent data loss .
