I want to have an encrypted portion of a USB stick that's accessible on Windows, Linux, and OS X. This will include lots of files, to the point that individual file encryption would seem impractical, and a partition (or encrypted virtual disk) would be the best solution. I thought "TrueCrypt!" ... but the first word that came up when I searched for it was "discontinued:" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TrueCrypt . According to that same Wikipedia article, its successors are VeraCrypt or CipherShed: of the two, VeraCrypt seems more practical, as it actually has several public releases behind it whereas CipherShed seems like it's more of an idea than a product right now. Has anybody tried either of these? Any other solutions that people are using or would suggest for this circumstance? Thanks. -- Giles http://www.gilesorr.com/ gilesorr@gmail.com
