Hi,

I'm working in a large enterprise that will look next year for an "enterprise class \
solution" that can handle all the life cycle of USB key that use encryption.

But now, we have to find a quick win solution that we can put in production shortly \
with a limited budget.

I personally used Truecrypt for several years but here the reason why I don’t want to \
use it for an enterprise solution:

1-If the user lost the password of his USB key, you are dead
2-If the user go on a computer that don't already have Truecrypt installed, you need \
administrative privilege

I did some search and I tried FreeOTFE (http://www.freeotfe.org/)

It does what I wanted to:

1-Technical Support will be able to create a backup key before giving the USB key to \
the user. So they will be able to recover the data if the user lost his password. \
2-There is a utility called FreeOTFE Explorer that can open the encrypted volume on \
the USB Key in the case you don't have administrative privilege on the computer. The \
app is not very quick but it seems to do the job.

My question is: Did someone had any bad experience with this app? If yes, did you \
find a better one that did the things I mentioned before and was working fine?

Thanks

JEP
