BitLocker or TrueCrypt for thumb drive encryption
Hello, Does anyone encrypt their thumb drives? I do for traveling purposes, if I'm going through an airport security point if I loose one the finder only gets a thumb drive not my data. Previously I've used TrueCrypt but have just learned BitLocker in 7 pro and up can also do this. Does anyone have any opinions pro or conn for a comparison between BitLocker and TrueCrypt? Thanks. Dave.
Hey David, I have to say, I have had no reason to venture away from Truecrypt lately. If it's not broken, don't fix it. I'm using Truecrypt for work at the moment as well. -----Original Message----- From: Blind-sysadmins [mailto:blind-sysadmins-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org] On Behalf Of David Mehler Sent: 14 August 2013 08:37 To: blind-sysadmins Subject: [Blind-sysadmins] BitLocker or TrueCrypt for thumb drive encryption Hello, Does anyone encrypt their thumb drives?
