While BitTorrent Sync should be secure in itself, it cannot absolutely guarantee that files will not end up on unauthorized systems (due to hash collisions, though the chance of that happening is very, very small), hence the encryption before sending out the data. This encrypted folder is subsequently synchronized to all other computers using BitTorrent Sync. The diagram below shows how these components work together, achieving hassle-free synchronization while still offering end-to-end encryption.īasically, my files are stored on a drive which is automatically encrypted by Boxcryptor and stored in a separate folder. While still in beta, I find it to work very well and offer reliable, secure and fast synchronization without any hassles.
Encrypts a partition or drive where Windows is installed (pre-boot authentication).Encrypts an entire partition or storage device such as USB flash drive or hard drive.Creates a virtual encrypted disk within a file and mounts it as a real disk.
TrueCrypt offers a great feature name On-the-fly encryption, this means that data is automatically encrypted right before it is saved and decrypted right after it is loaded, without any user intervention, making this software an extremely useful and secure tool.
You just have to “mount” these files or folders like you usually do when you move it to another HDD or USB flash, and TrueCrypt will store your data on an Encrypted volume or “New Virtual Disk”. I guess we all have files or even entire folders that wish nobody can´t see and with this tool now this is possible. TrueCrypt is free Open Source disk encryption software with this useful tool you will be able to create a virtual encrypted disk, you can store your files or folders there and be sure that no data stored on an encrypted volume can be read (decrypted) without using the correct password/keyfile(s) or correct encryption keys.
