Comodo Disk Encryption is a software used for protecting sensitive information by encrypting a drive from the computer. It offers 2 modes of protecting the information: encrypt a drive with various encryption settings or mount an encrypted virtual partition and save the information inside it.
The program is really easy to use, has a simple and clean interface, so that even a user who doesn't know much about encryption could use it. It will split the local drives from the virtual drives in 2 different tabs so that the user will not get confused.
Comodo Disk Encryption offers the possibility to use various hash and encryption algorithms. The has algorithms include Whirlpool (512-bit, the strongest), SHA1, SHA256, MD5 and RIPEMD160, and the encryption algorithms include AES (Advanced Encryption Standard, 128-bit, the strongest), Serpent, Blowfish, 3DES and Twofish.
There are some additional layers of security for when encrypting a drive: password authentication, USB memory key authentication or both. The password authentication will require to enter a password whenever the system is started to enable accessing the encrypted drives. For the USB memory key authentication, a USB memory will have to be configured as a authentication key. After this is done, the key will have to be plugged-n the system for the encrypted drives to be accessible.
