TrueCrypt : Really protect your sensitve data from prying eyes

Bookmark and Share

If you have sensitive data or information stored on your hard drive, you need TrueCrypt. TrueCrypt provides amazingly free (open-source) and simple secure disk encryption, protecting your valuable files or your entire drive from unauthorized access.

For most people, it will be enough to use TrueCrypt as a virtual volume to store their protected files. Used this way, TrueCrypt basically acts as a mounted drive for which you must enter secure credentials to access.

However, you can use TrueCrypt as well to protect access to the OS before it boots up, or even the entire disk before access is allowed to it.

For you algorithm nerds, AES-256, Serpent, and Twofish are employed. For the rest of the world, just know this: your data is safe with TrueCrypt.
