TrueCrypt is discontinued, try these free alternatives
TrueCrypt was a free and open-source disk encryption utility first launched in 2004. The freeware was discontinued in May 2014 and is no longer maintained.

TrueCrypt alternatives:
    •    VeraCrypt is open-source and code audited, improves on TrueCrypt, works on Mac and PC, and allows creation of encrypted containers
    •    Bitlocker is built into Windows, is not open-source, only encrypts full disks, and has no plausible deniability mechanism
    •    DiskCryptor is a Windows-only tool, is open source but not audited, allows the bootloader to be installed on a USB or CD, and works faster than others
    •    Ciphershed is another TrueCrypt fork, works with old TrueCrypt containers, is slow with updates, and works on Mac, PC, and Linux
    •    FileVault 2 is built into Mac OSX Lion and later, only allows full disk encryption, and is not open source
    •    LUKS is an open-source option for Linux, supports multiple algorithms, but does not offer much support for non-Linux systems
