TPM, may go by a different name, and documentation is both sparse & a bit sketchy. Microsoft includes a limited feature set version of BitLocker with Windows 10 Home, but it's only made available if the device meets specific hardware requirements, e.g. Note: you may have to enable TPM in the bios. Using TPM is maybe a bit controversial - vulnerabilities have been found in the past, and the VeraCrypt FAQ faults TPM as mainly good for a false sense of security. Hasleo BitLocker Anywhere doesn't use a TPM, so you have to enter a password. Microsoft uses TPM to store the key - you use a USB stick that has to be plugged in at boot time otherwise. Hasleo's BitLocker Anywhere is software that has to be installed - that's hardly difficult, but there are people who prefer avoiding software installs. no TPM requirements, but is Microsoft going to someday take notice, and legal action, so Hasleo's product is no longer available or supported in some countries?Ĭomparing Hasleo's & Microsoft's BitLocker, Microsoft's BitLocker can get pretty complicated to set up and administer, though it couldn't be easier to turn on its default setup for personal use in Windows 10 Pro - simply flip the switch at Control Panel -> System and Security -> BitLocker Drive Encryption. Hasleo BitLocker obviously isn't a direct copy of the Microsoft code, e.g. My 1st concern isn't about how well Hasleo BitLocker works, but rather that BitLocker is proprietary, owned & I assume trademarked etc.
