Review:

Do you have information that you don't want to fall into the wrong hands?

Disk encryption software is an excellent solution for keeping sensitive data private.

Protecting your data does not get much simpler than with Dekart Private Disk. Setup is simple and quick and the user interface is well-designed and self-explanatory.

When you first start the program, you will need to begin by creating a "virtual disk" where your private information will be stored.

This process essentially creates virtual second hard drive on your computer. You access and use this virtual drive just like you would a regular drive. When you copy files to the drive, they are automatically encrypted and protected.

If you wish to completely hide the virtual drive, simply unmount the drive and it will disappear. No one will know it is there or be able to detect it.

You also have the option of encrypting information on a host of other storage media (including: HDD, FDD, CD, CD/R, CD/RW, MO, MD, ZIP-disks, flash drives, all types of flash memory cards, PDAs, and even digital cameras).

Conclusion:

It does not get any simpler than this. Therefore, if you have sensitive information, there is no reason not to take the steps to protect it with a simple but effective software solution such as Deskart Private Disk.
