Free or not, Compusec is a excellent product. It has been very stable
for over the last few years. And worked fine on various computers I
had, including SCSI based workstation. The only 2 drawbacks I have
seen with compusec are:
1) Lack of Challenge/Response password recovery mechanism. This is
very useful in large roll-out of any FDE solution. Utimaco and
Pointsec have challenge/response based password recovery.
2) The encryption is limited to 128bit AES. Some institutions mandate
256bit AES.
