VeraCrypt allows you to create and maintain an encrypted volume on the fly. On-the-fly encryption is a method by which data is automatically encrypted before it is saved. It is also decrypted immediately after it is loaded without any user intervention. This is a highly secure method of data encryption because any data stored on encrypted volumes cannot be read or decrypted without the correct password/keyfile(s), or the correct encryption keys. The entire file system is encrypted (e.g. To give you the best security, all files are encrypted (e.g., file names, folders, contents of each file, free space and meta data).
These are the key features:
VeraCrypt, a free disk encryption program, is based on TrueCrypt 7.1.1a. It provides enhanced security for the algorithms used to encrypt system and partitions, making it resistant to new developments in brute force attacks. VeraCrypt was specifically designed to provide better security for the data you wish to encrypt. It is lightweight and easy to use.
