Subject: [Hampshire] Alternatives to TrueCrypt?
Just wondered what software folks are using to encrypt USB HDDs?

I used TrueCrypt pretty successfully but it's now unmaintained:
http://truecrypt.sourceforge.net/

I tried out eCryptfs sometime back but found it a bit of a hassle as
it meant I had to mount things twice (the USB HDD and the encrypted
partition).

What alternatives are out there which are secure, maintained and
somewhat hassle-free when it comes to removable storage?

Bonus points for GUI-based and able to be used easily with Debian stable.

Thanks!
