Easy encryption software

[Mr.Ben]

All I want is some nice and easy to deploy Encryption software, I really don't want to have to image any machines when I do it.

 

Whilst Truecrypt is free there are no instructions on how to deploy it automatically.

 

Is there a server based product out there? - I don't mind paying (well, to a point!)

Sorry to hijack but if anyone knows how to deploy truecrypt via a script or something please post it here

How about an MSI?

 

SourceForge.net: Open Source MSI repository: Files

 

(Bit out of date tho)

It's not a hijack, If there is one out there I'm all for it! How about configuring it automatically too!

I just searched wpkg

 

TrueCrypt - WPKG | Open Source Software Deployment and Distribution

 

TrueCrypt

 

This is a silent installer for TrueCrypt, a program for using files or partitions as encrypted volumes. Very high level of security is offered alongside with hidden volumes etc.

 

Unfortunately it currently doesn't have a silent installer. The following uses msi-packet from RogueSpear (Registration to forums required). Msi-packet doesn't support silent uninstalling.

Hey, has anyone got a copy of the original 2008, 54 page, BECTA guide to data encyption? You know, the one with a large section detailing how to use TrueCrypt? It's been replaced on their site, with a newer, shorter version

I do, I do, I do.

 

Did confuss me as well, I suppose someone complain because it was basically, saying use this, forget about the others...

I spent a long time making an MSI for truecrypt, has that MSI been there for long lol?

 

I just installed the MSI from the souceforge site and it doesnt seem to work as it doesnt install the driver? (checked on Vista)

 

I think my MSI ONLY installed the driver and they could then run truecrpyt in portable mode?

 

Its been a while, and after hours of work, only 2 people ever brought memory sticks to me.. but hey
