VeraCrypt

VeraCrypt primarily caters to disk encryption but also supports imaging scenarios where secure containers are crucial. Users can create virtual encrypted drives or cloak entire partitions for bare-metal restore. Compression and incremental backups require separate tools or advanced scripting. An activity dashboard is minimal, but multiple format support ensures flexibility in data storage. While VeraCrypt’s focus is on encryption, it can be integrated with disk cloning workflows, offering a security-first approach for images on removable or local drives.
