VeraCrypt is a free open source disk encryption software for
Windows, Mac OSX and Linux.

VeraCrypt main features:

- Creates a virtual encrypted disk within a file and mounts it as a
real disk.
- Encrypts an entire partition or storage device such as USB flash
drive or hard drive.
- Encrypts a partition or drive where Windows is installed (pre-boot
authentication).
- Encryption is automatic, real-time(on-the-fly) and transparent.
- Parallelization and pipelining allow data to be read and written
as fast as if the drive was not encrypted.
- Provides plausible deniability, in case an adversary forces you to
reveal the password: Hidden volume (steganography) and hidden
operating system.
