|
|
answer: |
|
|
BitLocker To Go is BitLocker Drive Encryption on removable data drives. This feature includes the encryption of:
|
|
|
|
- USB flash drives
|
|
- SD cards
|
|
- External hard disk drives
|
|
- Other drives that are formatted by using the NTFS, FAT16, FAT32, or exFAT file system.
|
|
|
|
Drive partitioning must meet the [BitLocker Drive Encryption Partitioning Requirements](/windows-hardware/manufacture/desktop/bitlocker-drive-encryption#bitlocker-drive-encryption-partitioning-requirements).
|
|
|
|
As with BitLocker, drives that are encrypted by BitLocker To Go can be opened by using a password or smart card on another computer. In Control Panel, use **BitLocker Drive Encryption**.
