Almost all users of personal information and important saved on your computer that would take away from prying eyes. Windows is a little ‘lacking in relation to the protection of sensitive data: the maximum offering is the management of users and permissions, but if for example you use a user shared with other people there is no solution so as to protect a certain set of files in a safe manner.
E ‘possible however to remove this limit by using encryption software like TrueCrypt data that works with a different mode compared to other similar tool. TrueCrypt it does not make the encryption of entire file selected by the user, but allows the user to create a virtual encrypted disk.
Immediately after installation the user is asked how many disk drives to create (you can also create flash devices, by clicking on “extract” at the time of installation) and the size to be assigned to them. And ‘how to choose NTFS, because it allows the formatting of the virtual.
Once you have created the ‘protected virtual drive you can drag the files as if it were a normal disk connected to your computer:after this operation the file are no longer visible nor accessible only after authentication by the TrueCrypt main screen and when the program is off the drive will be invisible to all users of the computer and those that you can access remotely.
Another excellent feature of TrueCrypt is the function “Hidden TrueCrypt” through which you can create a sub-virtual disk totally invisible in a standard TrueCrypt disk. This is to protect users who may be extorted the master password, the sub-disk requires in turn a different password.
