    Softpedia Editor's Review for DriveCrypt

    EDITOR'S RATING:

    Protects your data with very fast and a true "on the fly" encryption process.

    Written by Elena Opris on February 7th, 2012

    DriveCrypt is a software that allows you to quickly secure the information stored on your computer.

    Once you initiate the application, you have to request a trial code on the developer's website in order to access DriveCrypt for 30 days.

    The interface is user-friendly and you can create a new safe by initiating the simple wizard.

    So, you can give a new time to the container, set the encrypted disk size, assign a password, select the drive letter that you prefer to use when accessing the secured disk, enter a volume name and press the "Create" button.

    This task doesn't take a long while. You can view a progress bar and estimated remaining time. Furthermore, you can create multiple safes, add an existing safe to the DriveCrypt list, dismount all safes and start a safe scan.

    If you think the standard viewing mode is too simplistic for you, then you can switch to advanced mode and access several more options.

    For example, you can mount an existing disk, use force brute to dismount all disks, clear the password cache, mount secure partitions and create a disk within an audio file.

    The latter option requires you select the audio quality and disk size, as well as select a file system for the disk, a preferred drive letter, volume name, encryption method, password hashing mode and password(s).

    The program takes up a very low amount of system resources, contains a full user documentation with snapshots, minimizes to system tray and didn't freeze or crash during our tests.

    Unfortunately, the trial version doesn't give you full access to the features in the "create a disk within an audio file" option. Otherwise, we strongly recommend DriveCrypt to all users.
