Re: Whole Disk Encryption

[Alexander Kurt Keller <alkeller () SFSU EDU>]

Hi Aaron,

TrueCrypt is a superb (and free) full disk encryption option for personal use. It offers a myriad of encryption options 
and is both reliable and fast on newer hardware. The reason you don’t see it more widely deployed in the enterprise is 
due to it’s lack of centralized management tools (key recovery, remote install, etc.).

Best,
alex

things you would have changed or pitfalls?
