Any thoughts or has anyone come across Biometric activated USB pens?

If so, did you get around them?

Thanks in advance

You mean one of those things with fingerprint recognition, like this one

or these

?

I would guess that the "safe" method would be simply to de-solder the Flash memory and read it on another controller.

Though usually those kind of sticks also use some kind of encryption, and that maybe much tougher than recovering the RAW data from the chips.
