I need a tool for encrypting the hard disk on my laptop. I've looked at
SafeBoot and SafeGuard, but as far as I can tell these are only
available with multi-user licenses, and hence quite expensive.

I only want to protect one laptop at a one-off price. Recommendations
anyone?

Hi Ian,

You may want to check SecureDoc by Winmagic.
http://www.winmagic.com/

They have been around for quite a while and are certified to
meet several Government security standards.

Cheers,

Systemguy

If you're using Free Software, there are solutions with the OS.
If you're using Windows, then truecrypt would be a good choice.
