File Vault 2, the whole-hard-disk-encryption solution built in to Mac OS
10.7 and up, is super-easy to use--precisely the same as BitLocker, the
analogous solution built in to Windows 7 Ultimate and Windows 8 Pro.
Cybersecurity seminar trainees are often surprised to find they already have
these tools but never knew it. They're not on by default.
