Safe use of external hard disk
What is the safest way to protect data on an external hard drive, when using the hard drive on computers other than your own.
Is there a good recommended software I can use to encrypt my hard drive and have it available to be decrypted on another computer and to keep all the encryption software on the same drive?
I have heard of some simple security programs that come with some hard drives, but I'm looking for an open source or similar solution that is well documented in terms of security.
I would like to take a 1 terabyte hard drive around to different places and I want to protect my information.
My home computer is Windows 7 Professional and I will use windows computers elsewhere also. What kind of portable software is available?
Or ... did I answer my question. Is the best bet, to simply encrypt files with something like pgp?
