BitLocker To Go Reader
Bitlocker is a data encryption technology that Microsoft implemented into Ultimate and Enterprise editions of Windows Vista and Windows 7. The latest version of Bitlocker, which is only available for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 users, adds the function to encrypt removable storage devices with Bitlocker. This could however be problematic in situations where no computer system that supports Bitlocker is available.
Microsoft has therefor created a solution for this problem by introducing the Bitlocker To Go Reader so that the data on the portable device can be read in operating systems that are not supporting Bitlocker. Microsoft's solution is the Bitlocker To Go Reader, a software program compatible with Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7 that can be used to decrypt the data on a Bitlocker encrypted removable storage device.
