Best USB Encryption Software.

BCHOWDHURY:
Can forum members advise as to both free and paid USB password protection/ encryption software? I need one such immediately.

Renegade:
I won't recommend any specific software or algorithm, but I will say that multiple iterations with encryption, even with the same algorithm, are stronger. So, if you picked ACME Encryptor, then used it 3x on the same file, you would have increased the protection level all that much more. (I don't want to say 3x or something else as I forget the exact math for it, but that should be a good enough comment to help a bit.)

BCHOWDHURY:
TrueCrypt seems fine.

I know this "intuitively feels right", but please back up the claim with work from acknowledge cryptographers :-)
