Abstract
A method for transmitting data and preventing unauthorized data duplication for human-machine interface device (HID) using Mass Storage Class (MSC) operating on Universal Serial Bus (USB) simulating the HID as an external USB storage device to make data connection to an external computer thus driver installation is not required when the operating system used by the external computer is not compatible with the operating used by the HID. The method encrypted the transmitted data via a dynamic password and does not write the data to the File Allocation Table (FAT) therefore the transmitted data is not under threat of unauthorized data duplication by a third party.
