Download of the Week: TrueCrypt

I like this program. I use it to store passwords and other private stuff on my laptop (in case if it gets stolen).

This is a brilliant piece of software. It is very useful if you want to encrypt anything personal. I highly recommend this product.

I have been using TrueCrypt for a number of years and it works quite well. I highly recommend that you keep this in your pc tools.

TrueCrypt 6.3a (Nov 23, 2009) is on TrueCrypt.org, the link in the article takes you to a TechSpot link that features TrueCrypt 6.1a from Dec 2008. May want to update the TechSpot download link.

A VERY handy app. I have been using TruCrypt for little over a year. I installed it on my 2GB flash drive that does not have the security built in. Works like a charm. Tryit....you will like it.

After playing with this for a couple of days, it really is a nice encryption tool, starting for it being free, then allowing the storage to be crypted and not the files itself, so you can encrypt multiple files with a single drag and drop to a single code, and a lot of nice functions like portable TC on external disks to use it even on computers you don't own.

A very powerful aplication, thumbs up!

This seems really nice, i'm likely going to put it on my flash drive and use it for stuff I dont want my boss to see muahaha.

On a side note, noticed a lot of people saying they just use winrar to password protect. That's fine and everything for files your not to concerned about, but Winrar's password protection isn't very secure at all last i knew. Most people with decent computer knowledge can break it..as compared to this program which offers protection that little to no one can break at the moment.

While I'm sure this is a neat application, I don't really have a use for it...yet perhaps. I don't have anything on my computer that I need to hide. Maybe when I need to start doing taxes and banking or anything that involves identity related information, I might use this. But for now, it would just take up space on my PC.

looks like a pretty neat program. Think I might give it a shot.

TrueCrypt has always been a favorite of mine. It's open source, easy to use, and has tons of options/encryption schemes. The best feature of all (in my opinion) is being able to set multiple passwords (dummy passwords/dummy data) and having plausible deniability due to the way TrueCrypt works.
