A good friend of mine in the US recommended the free <A href="http://www.truecrypt.org/">TrueCrypt</A> and her exact words were “even an idiot could set this up!”. I figured that was good enough for me (!) and I went ahead and downloaded it. It was the best decision I ever made.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/encrypt-sensitive-data-with-truecrypt/"><H1><A title="Permanent Link to Encrypt Sensitive Data with TrueCrypt" rel="bookmark" href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/encrypt-sensitive-data-with-truecrypt/">Encrypt Sensitive Data with TrueCrypt</A></H1></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/encrypt-sensitive-data-with-truecrypt/"><P><IMG border="0" align="left" src="http://www.makeuseof.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/truecrypt.gif" />Today I want to discuss an application called <A href="http://www.truecrypt.org/">TrueCrypt</A>.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/encrypt-sensitive-data-with-truecrypt/"><P>How it works basically boils down to this - you create a folder on your “C” drive, just a normal regular folder. You give it a name - let’s just say for the purposes of this discussion that it’s called FORT KNOX. This folder is where the encrypted files will be stored. You next have to decide how big you want this folder to be - choose well as you can’t change it afterwards! I chose 1GB which seemed enough for me but you may decide on more or less.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;"> </td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/E42CABB1-D3F4-4A23-B7E6-8A9970495FCB/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
