What Are You Doing Right Now

I'm creating more encrypted volumes on our external USB hard drives. And because on Apple you need admin rights to mount partitions we can't just encrypt the entire device.
Instead we have to create a volume that takes up as close to 100% of the disk and encrypt that. . .
Which of course can be deleted bu simply selecting the volume on the external device and clicking delete. . .
Fun times.

But at least your data is A) Encrypted or `B) Gone...

@dafyre This is true, its just a bit of a pain point having to explain that to users.
And encrypting these volumes takes like 10+ hours because of their size. . .

And that is the most important requirement.

Ewww. That does suck. If they delete the volume, are you allowed to send users in for reprogramming?

If by reprogramming you mean a slap on the wrists. No. But I'm sure the question will be asked aren't these external devices backed up?

About 12 hours left on this 1.8TB volume encryption process.
Good thing I just have to let it run.

Just went to update my resume and realized I no longer have a copy of my own resume in any useful or up to date format, as I've not used one in SO long.

The consensus for the majority seems to be that way. Not everything is bad but somethings are not the best.

This. I have experience with the SSL VPN and E-mail Security Gateway. Way expensive for what you get IMO

I learned that I only have to get inside your LAN in order to steal all the network data.
