CompTIA A+ Certification Core 1 (220-1101) - Encrypting Mass Storage

The video tutorial discusses the importance of encryption for protecting sensitive data on storage devices. It explains two main types of encryption: file-based and disk-based. The tutorial demonstrates how to use the Encrypting File System (EFS) on Windows for file-level encryption and BitLocker for disk-level encryption. It also covers setting up the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) for BitLocker and using BitLocker to Go for encrypting removable media.
