## VeraCrypt Reviews
  ### 1. Fast, Easy and Secure Encryption 

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Prabh A. | Owner, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 18, 2018

**What do you like best about VeraCrypt?**

The ability to easily create and mount secure encrypted drives 

**What do you dislike about VeraCrypt?**

I've heard rumors that VeraCrypt is based on TrueCrypt which had some security vulnerabilites and some backdoors 

**Recommendations to others considering VeraCrypt:**

This is as secure as it can get. You can also create a hidden Vera Crypt partition on your system with a hidden and encrypted OS running on it 

**What problems is VeraCrypt solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I secure the files in my flash drive while I'm on business trips! This way in case my drive gets lost or stolen my data isn't vulnerable
