Full disk encryption (FDE) is a common way to prevent unauthorized use of data by encrypting the whole storage device. TrueCrypt is one of the widest-known open source tools providing FDE. It's available for multiple OSs including Windows, Mac OS, and Linux, letting you share encrypted storage among these systems. Unfortunately, there are license problems and questions related to implementation security. A community-funded project aims to review license issues and perform a full security audit of source codes. This article, which includes comments on older and problematic TrueCrypt encryption modes, provides interesting insight into the TrueCrypt data format history.
