Protect your personal information
Like many I use thumb drive. I store personal information in it. I want to protect that information even if I lose that drive. I use TrueCrypt, an open source cross platform disk encryption software. It creates an encrypted file system on a file with a password. When I mount this file, it appears as a drive.
In the above picture it appears as drive W: You can use it as a normal drive.
When I am done I will unmount it, also if the drive is not used for long time it unmounts itself. TrueCrypt has many other features like Traveler Mode.There is no Mac OS X port yet.Mac OS X version of TrueCrypt.
