TrueCrypt is an awesome open-source software program for on the fly file encryption.  Here’s some of the main features:

• Creates a virtual encrypted disk within a file and mounts it as a real disk.
• Encrypts an entire hard disk partition or a storage device such as USB flash drive.
• Encryption is automatic, real-time (on-the-fly) and transparent.
• Provides two levels of plausible deniability, in case an adversary forces you to reveal the password:

  1) Hidden volume (steganography – more information may be found here).

  2) No TrueCrypt volume can be identified (volumes cannot be distinguished from random data).

• Encryption algorithms: AES-256, Serpent, and Twofish. Mode of operation: LRW.

The software runs on Windows Vista/XP/2000 and Linux.  It allows you to create a mountable volume on your computer in order to store files that are fully and securely encrypted.  Excellent program and free.  Check it out.
