Protect Sensitive Files and Data with TrueCrypt

Do you travel with your laptop? Do you transport work files on portable media (USB, CD)? Are you concerned about what would happen to sensitive files if your laptop were stolen or the portable media were lost or stolen? TrueCrypt may be for you.

TrueCrypt is a program that allows you to create a secure space, either as a file on an existing drive or on a device such as a USB drive. This space is secure in that files stored in it are encrypted and cannot be opened or read without using a password to connect to the space. You can then use this space, called a volume, to store sensitive data and files.

TrueCrypt encrypts files as they are saved to the volume without you having to do anything. Then, when you open a file that has been saved to the volume, TrueCrypt unencrypts it as it opens, again without you having to do anything.
