VeraCrypt is very flexible and can encrypt entire partitions or individual files.It offers a wide range of encryption algorithms, including AES, Serpent, and Twofish, which provide high levels of security. I was able to encrypt my files to my liking, and with the feeling that the encryption was efficient enough for my needs.

Overall, VeraCrypt is a powerful and secure disk encryption software that is well-suited for users who have a moderate level of technical knowledge or are willing to learn about encryption, and are looking for a high level of security. You can only mount VeraCrypt volumes locally. There are no sharing options, no cloud storage options, and no support for cloud storage drag-and-drop functionality either. The interface is somewhat clunky and the installation process can be challenging for non-technical users.-The lack of cloud storage integration is one thing that may be a deal-breaker for some users. The software is best suited for those who have some experience with encryption and are comfortable with navigating complicated technical settings. On the downside, VeraCrypt can be difficult to use for beginners.

You can also convert existing non-hidden volumes into hidden ones at any time by adding password protection and running the Format utility again. The ability to create hidden volumes is an option when you first create an encrypted volume (formatting your hard drive with VeraCrypt). A hidden volume is a special, encrypted container that you can use to store sensitive files or documents without those files appearing in plain view if your disk is ever mounted by someone else.

VeraCrypt supports file encryption, partition/device encryption, and disk encryption.-It can be used to create encrypted volumes within files or partitions and encrypt entire drives (system or primary).-You can mount a hidden operating system on the same device that uses encrypted data as well as create multi-boot systems that use VeraCrypt in addition to other operating systems like Windows 10, Mac OS X El Capitan, etc.-It is open source software so anyone can check its code for vulnerabilities or backdoors before using it on their devices/systems (there have been no reports of any security holes yet).- Hidden volumes and operating systemsVeraCrypt's hidden volumes are an important feature for any user who wants to protect the data on their computer.

It’s also free and open-source, making it a good choice for those looking to avoid proprietary products. It offers a lot of features that are very useful to protect our sensitive information from prying eyes.

VeraCrypt is a great option for us, looking to encrypt our data on a hard drive and solid state drives. The app will take you a bit more time if you really want to go through all the options, but it feels safer than other 'click-to-encrypt' software that doesn't allow much customization and may put your data at risk. Veracrypt seems to be the only reliable source out there. Veracrypt is fast (it's fast to decrypt your data but also fast to secure it once you want your files/containers locked. The benchmark comes in very handy when choosing the right level of protection (you don't want something too slow, but neither do you want something that is fast and less secure. Even if you are not a specialist, the application guides you and provides help through the process. I do like the algorithms options (there are 15 available) and being able to combine them, while also having the option to choose from 4 different hash algorithms. Veracrypt is open-source, which is for me a marker of trust (reducing the chance of backdoors). Even if the cloud backup company has a breach, we feel assured that our data is not accessible. Now, all our data is secured in safe containers, and backed online. You never know when one day your data ends up in the wrong hands. I used to have private data all around my hard drives.
