A. Create the NEOPRO Security Volume (SV)
First, click "Create” in NEOPRO Security Key Manager (NSK Manager) to open the dialog for creating the NEOPRO Security Volume. Please follow below steps to configure the settings:

4.         Set the password to access SV. This password will be required when mount or edit the SV. Please remember the SV password well. Once the password is lost, you will be unable to retrieve the data in the SV! You can also choose not to set the password, and then only the NEOPRO Security Key is needed to access the SV.
5.         If you wish to use the SV immediately after the creation, you can select the "mount immediately after the creation”. The system will mount the SV automatically after the creation. Please refer to next section for "mount the SV”.
Click "Create” to start the creation of SV after these settings. This will take some time due to the size of SV.

IV.  FAQ
Q: what’s the difference between NEOPRO and Guard Dog?
A: Guard Dog is designed to prevent software from been copied by encrypting the software, but NEOPRO Security Key can encrypt all data on your computer, and it is used for Data Loss Prevention. Operation is easier than Guard Dog. You can create a new drive with NEOPRO and save your data into that drive for the encryption.
 
Q: Is NEOPRO Secure and Reliable?
A: NEOPRO uses 256-bit AES encryption algorithm on which the existing network data, financial systems and other systems are based. In principle, it is like the USBKey that used by E-BANK, so it is very secure and reliable.
 
Q: What’s the difference between NEOPRO and Encryption Compression?
A: It’s more convenient to use NEOPRO as you can encrypt data like operating in ordinary hard drive, no need to encrypt or decrypt, compress or decompress, and there is no time delay. Once you plug out NEOPRO from the computer, your data is under protection. Plug it back to the USB port of the computer, you can access the data again. It's so easy at all!
 
Q: How many computers can one NEOPRO protect?
A: There is no limitation on the number of computers you can use with one NEOPRO. As long as there are free spaces on your hard drive, you can use NEOPRO to create NEOPRO Security Volume. You can use only one NEOPRO Security key with your home computer, office computer; you can even use it in the Internet bar to protect your data.
 
Q: What shall I do if I lost my NEOPRO Security Key?
A: If you lost your NEOPRO Security Key, please find the original "Data Recovery DNA" and contact us for recovering your data. But if you’ve lost the original "Data Recovery DNA", then nobody could help you to recover the data.
 
Q: Can NEOPRO protect my data from being lost?
A: No. NEOPRO security key could just prevent your data from leakage. But there are still some computer experts that could destruct your data. For example, if there is a hard drive that only you have the permission to access, but there still some people can break the hard drive, thus destruct the data.
