Trying to encrypt flash drive in a linux ubuntu

Post by FinnJoye »

Hi there, i have tried to find in this forum that topic, could not find any specific result.
well, I'm new user to Linux and trying to encryption my flash drive like following this article https://www.beencrypted.com/how-to-encr ... ash-drive/

My question is: is that possible to run full flash encryption with password and that USB should work with other Operating systems as well. Like i have heard that NTSF Encryption wont work in other devices.

Is there any answer for this?

Regards

i can think of a number of ways to achieve what you want, but
