Securing a USB flash drive

Is it possible to encrypt a USB?  For example, if I plug in my thumb drive or flash drive, before seeing all the files in it, can it be setup first to prompt for a password? For example, for model like LEXAR SECURE II or San Disk, do they have a settings?

They should have a public/private side.  Public = everyone access, Prive = password protected, should be able to allocate space for each side.

What do you mean? I can't find that set up Public, Private, on the USB.  All I can see is all my files after inserting the USB on the port.  Can you tell me step by step how to do it, thanks.
