How To Encrypt Your Hard Drive

[LKJPDUR]

what's the point of the encryption? How can I create a file that is encrypted and can not be deleted easily? Please Help!

[thejeffbomb]

@LKJPDUR You are thinking of backup. Encryption = a person can't easily see what your file system contains. Backup = a deleted file can be recovered more easily. Backing up off-site can minimizing chances of a catastrophic deletion (from a fire/tornado hitting your computing site). It is usually best to encrypt first, then back up off-site. Using powerful encryption on your backups makes for safer site 2 storage. If site 2 security is breached, your backups will not yield secrets.

So anyone can delete the file anytime they want. and then I lose all my file?

[thejeffbomb]

@LKJPDUR Yes, just as with any (ordinary) unencrypted file. There may be a slightly added risk when using encryption, because other users on your system may not understand the importance of the encrypted file's content. Also, if you encrypt a whole volume, some clever users may think it blank, and format it. Therefore, under some circumstances, encryption can create an increased rate of human-error in accidental deletion. I hope this helps.

I hate encryption, I just bought a new external hard drive and now I can't even use it while it's being encrypted -.- Fecking great

does encrypting your finals damage anything or if I encrypt something like a game, for example, would it make it so it can not run?

[BukoCK]

@D4gI3 Why the fuck do you watch this tutorial if you don't even know what decrypting is?

Anyways, it's making the thing you select hard to read.

TrueCrypt is also available for Linux.

Truecrypt is fucking dangerous.

Do the double-encryption or don't use it at all. Really. Single encrypt and you'll have a court demand the second level or you get jailed for contempt of court - so you go to jail forever because you cannot provide the second encryption key.

This stuff is fucking dangerous.

@bdf2718 can u please explain further, is this if u have illeagle stuff on the drive or i dont get it.

Doesn't matter what you have on your drive.

Police suspect you have something illegal on your Truecrypt drive. Ask for password. You give it. Then they say the know that Truecrypt lets you have a hidden encrypted drive withing the encrypted drive. Demand the password for that. You say you didn't use that feature. 3 years in prison for contempt of court. When you come out, repeat.

So set up the hidden inner drive to avoid that fate.

@bdf2718 i think i get it now

@bdf2718 Sounds like you live in a police state.

In the USA, the best thing to do is: Don't answer a single question that the cops ask.

There's a good debate that I saw where a law professor and a former cop both advise that approach.

[muffemod]

@zck7 type "don't talk to police" in the youtube search to see the debate. very good.

What happens if you encrypt a file with true crypt and you use unblocker on it.

[bdf2718]

@hockeyhatesgooglnow

Truecrypt sneers at you.

[pkhamidar2com]

[jdills1196]

[Dallouez]

Jimmy, Am I the only one that is having trouble with searchs? Has anyone contacted you about that? You seem to know more than most people on youtube. I did a scan but no results. When I try Google for example it comes up with a blank page except the word "results" on the right hand side. Then I get a mess of advertising or a totally different page. I wrote Internet explorer but no result yet. Thanks in advance.

[gigafide]

yeah, i'm going to be doing that here soon...when i get time. btw, excellent use of the word "whilst" :-)

[videoman921]

Thanks for the info,this is very useful.More power and God bless.
