Amazing. The originators with the patent. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, experience and opinions. Just "met" you today. Blessed.

Would you recommend this for cold storage? E.g. storing encryption keys in a locked safe over a long period (years).

hey wonder what you do for backups with the samsung bar. I am considering carrying a USB on my keychain after seeing you do this.

This is awesome!!

Instant purchase!

The Samsung BAR is a great USB device. Could you share the name or a link to the silicone cover you're using? Super neat.

Haven’t watched yet but what happened to the market for keychain USB drives? I used to have a tiny metal Kingston drive that looked awesome and was super convenient. Are drives small enough for a keychain just not useful or reliable?

What about the Apricorn ones that Charles Hodgkinson showed. There are many that have security elements. If it so great explain why you will still not put your seed phrase on it:

Hey Sun, over the past year or so I have become more skeptical regarding Apple and their privacy claims, what are your opinions on iOS vs Android in this aspect? Ofcourse not all Android roms are built the same, but im most curious in common everyday brands such as Samsung, Google etc.

Feel you… the only Android-based OS I trust is GrapheneOS. That said, depends on use case… trade-offs. Might create episode on topic.

Common consensus seems to be GrapheneOS is the best rom for security on Android, they only support pixel phones though.

May be worth doing an updated video on configuring ios for privacy. Probably after ios17

Have you verified the manufacturer’s claimed transfer speeds? They seem believable, but sometimes the marketing claims are overzealous.

Why wouldn't you use something like LUKS or Veracrypt on a traditional flash drive?

But it this better than Aegis Apricorn Key

if it came in 1t ,,,id buy one as a secure win boot drive

Or you can boot distros to ram and eject the USB stick... You are then sure that nothing can be written on the USB stick...

how is this more secure than my veracrypt encrypted flash drive? i use 512 bit encryption with many tens of thousands of hashing iterations.

As mentioned in the video, if you have a key logger on your computer your 512 bit encryption is useless

someone installing a key logger into my OS and then breaking into my house and stealing my USB is not a threat model I'm planning for. My data is safer than Sun's, I can guarantee that.

@@uber354 for most use cases veracrypt is very secure. But devices like these are for the extremes. Some people also just find entering a pin more convenient. I’ll stick with the affordable option, but I still see the utility in these types of devices.
