I have still not moved to OS X, because of security concerns. Iam curious if you’ve seen many holdouts.
I use DiskLock with OS 9.2.2. I suspect that DiskLock is not planninga OS X product, they probably don’t see enough market demand. Peoplemay be lulled into thinking OS X is secure since there is the initialpassword-enabled signon (easily defeated by booting from a CD or in OS9). From reading various discussion groups, it appears that Apple willeventually make encryption available native to OS X (i.e. all data onthe drive can be encrypted) transparent to the user, but it has not yetbeen implemented and there is no announced schedule.
You can park your sensitive data on a Disk Image using DiskCopy’s 128bit encryption .. but that causes the extra step of mounting the diskimage, and aliases made of data on that image cannot be used to opendata within the image until the image itself is opened. I had hopedthat double clicking on the alias would access keychain to open thedisk image, then open the file, but no luck on that.
Also VST (SmartDisk), at least as of last month, had not releaseddrivers for 10.1 which read their 56-bit encrypted data.
I’ve mounted OS X on my wife’s iBook and play with it so I can keep upwith the literature .. and once it is more secure, I’ll make the switch.
