What is TrueCrypt?
TrueCrypt is a utility that enables on-the-fly encryption of data. It provides encryption for entire partitions, storage devices, or the drive where the operating system is installed, with real-time and transparent encryption and decryption. TrueCrypt can leverage hardware acceleration on modern processors to maximize performance, and it offers features for plausible deniability, including hidden volumes and hidden operating systems, in case an adversary compels the user to reveal the password
