Think about your data. And the way you used to share it. USB Sticks, DVD, CD-Rom, Harddisks - are a thing of the past. Many people use services like Dropbox, Google Drive, Box and similar on a daily routine. Some of those did not think about data security - and just dropped everything into the cloud: From bank data to keys and passwords and such&hellip; Others did think about those problems and tried to secure their important files via means as encryption like TrueCrypt. But that did come at a cost: Loss of usability: You just cannot open a file on your Android Smartphone on the fly. And occasionally, somehow the TrueCrypt drive would be uploaded as copy a second time to the Dropbox. Really nasty.</p>
