00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:06.520
a lot of the talk about encryption these days centers around securing things like

00:00:04.040 --> 00:00:10.719
internet connections and passwords on a server somewhere and it makes sense

00:00:08.800 --> 00:00:16.119
considering how much data is constantly being tossed around online but let's say

00:00:14.120 --> 00:00:20.920
that you've done everything you can to hide your online activity using a VPN

00:00:18.880 --> 00:00:25.800
making up a 20 character freaking password for your social media accounts

00:00:23.039 --> 00:00:30.640
and overwriting your browser cache what if despite all of this someone just

00:00:28.119 --> 00:00:34.640
walks off with your hard drive computer or breaks in while you're out of the

00:00:32.680 --> 00:00:39.040
house and starts trying to get into your stuff this is where an equally important

00:00:36.920 --> 00:00:42.879
kind of encryption can really help you it's called whole Drive encryption or

00:00:40.760 --> 00:00:48.480
full dis encryption and just like the name says the idea is to encrypt your

00:00:45.360 --> 00:00:50.559
whole drive so a thief can't just access

00:00:48.480 --> 00:00:54.800
all of your private data if they walk off with it but how does this work many

00:00:53.120 --> 00:00:59.120
full dis encryption methods such as Windows bit Locker try to give you a

00:00:56.920 --> 00:01:03.920
fairly transparent experience when you're actually using the computer to do

00:01:01.960 --> 00:01:08.400
this all of the data on your drive is encrypted and the next time you boot up

00:01:06.080 --> 00:01:13.920
your computer you'll be presented with a special preboot environment that will

00:01:11.040 --> 00:01:19.360
ask you for an encryption key this could be something as simple as a password or

00:01:16.840 --> 00:01:23.600
a key stored on a physical drive like a USB stick if you'd rather go that route

00:01:22.240 --> 00:01:27.759
after you supply the appropriate credentials your hard drive will be

00:01:25.320 --> 00:01:31.759
decrypted and you'll be able to carry on business as usual of course if someone

00:01:30.240 --> 00:01:36.360
steals your hard drive and your encryption key isn't terribly strong it

00:01:34.320 --> 00:01:41.640
might not be too hard for some miscreant to crack it so many users who use full

00:01:39.280 --> 00:01:48.119
dis encryption add another layer of protection through a trusted platform

00:01:44.600 --> 00:01:50.280
module or TPM this is an addin chip

00:01:48.119 --> 00:01:55.200
found on some motherboards and even if you don't have one many modern

00:01:52.520 --> 00:02:00.240
motherboards including lower cost ones have TPM headers so you can just buy one

00:01:57.880 --> 00:02:05.280
for not a lot of money and in install it yourself what a TPM does is generate

00:02:02.759 --> 00:02:10.479
encryption keys and stores them at least in part on the module itself instead of

00:02:07.719 --> 00:02:15.680
just the hard drive TPMS can also detect tampering attempts so if someone steals

00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:18.160
your hard drive out of your computer and

00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:22.599
tries to put it in their own it won't work and speaking of tampering TPMS can

00:02:21.080 --> 00:02:27.280
additionally tell if someone has injected malicious code like a root kit

00:02:25.239 --> 00:02:31.360
which you can learn about up here into your boot sector which often can't be

00:02:29.480 --> 00:02:36.560
encrypto by full drive encryption schemes this way it can lock down the

00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:40.239
system and help you recover it later without exposing it to rootkit malware

00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:44.480
some people even take this a step farther and buy Hardware encrypted

00:02:42.159 --> 00:02:49.599
drives that have a built-in chip that can encrypt the entire enchilada

00:02:47.159 --> 00:02:54.760
including your boot sector but despite all these ways to secure your drive they

00:02:52.280 --> 00:02:59.159
don't really do much at all to keep your data safe once your computer is up and

00:02:57.000 --> 00:03:04.280
running remember how I said it decrypts your entire higher Drive instead many

00:03:02.040 --> 00:03:08.440
people who are serious about security especially if they have to leave their

00:03:05.760 --> 00:03:13.640
computers on 24/7 for whatever reason use some sort of file system level

00:03:11.080 --> 00:03:18.879
encryption that can encrypt and decrypt individual files on demand very useful

00:03:16.599 --> 00:03:23.799
if you don't want someone to randomly use your PC and pouring through all of

00:03:21.200 --> 00:03:28.599
your questionable downloads so let us know if you'd like to see a video on how

00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:33.120
to keep your files safe from prying eyes if you have to leave your window session

00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:37.920
unattended after all you definitely don't want everyone knowing it was you

00:03:36.280 --> 00:03:42.400
that created that piece of fan art forchan just really can't stop talking

00:03:40.159 --> 00:03:45.760
