DiskCryptor is a free, open-source, on-the-fly encryption software for Windows operating systems. It allows users to encrypt their hard drives or partitions with strong encryption algorithms, such as AES-256 and Serpent. It also includes support for external devices, such as USB flash drives. With DiskCryptor, users can create encrypted virtual disks, which are stored as files on the system and can be mounted and used as if they were real disks. Additionally, the application offers a range of security features, such as keyfiles, password protection, and more. The software is designed to be compatible with all versions of Windows, including Windows 10.
