Core Storage encrypted startup volume, upgraded to 17A264c from a pre-release build of 10.12.6. External hard disk drive, limited to USB 2.0 with a MacBookPro8,2. After the upgrade I used Recovery OS Disk Utility to unlock the encrypted volume, then Terminal to perform a dry run of conversion...

I know that it is possible to create a lock screen message on a machine that is running FileVault, but is it possible to create a login screen message? It seems that this might be tricky since the boot process does not really even begin until a password is entered. Any thoughts?

Setting up my external 5TB USB3.0 Time Machine disk I decided to try 2 approaches: 1. First I enabled TM on the empty drive that was formatted with HSF+ (non encrypted). I configured TM to encrypt my backup drive on the go. The total size of my TM backup is more than 3TB and this process was...

I am recreating my encrypted TM backup in a new external USB3 disk. Is there any noticeable difference in the performance of the backup between using a 20 characters key length and a 50 characters one? The machine is a MBP 15" 2015 model. Thanks.

Lots of people reporting issues with Time Machine itself crashing their new MBPs. I can't even run it. I got it to run once, but made the mistake of encrypting the external drive. Every time I login to my Mac- I'm prompted for the encryption password for the drive (even though I saved it on...

I know I can encrypt my Time Machine backups. If I choose that option, are the backups only encrypted at rest (on the disk), or are they are encrypted in transit, too, such as when sending over a network to a Time Capsule or Synology? I ask because I have a Synology sitting here on my desk at...

While the "fashion" is to have encrypted messages, a new app appear to have it wright. TCHAPPER. It is all about privacy around you.
