Market for whole-disk encryption Mac software

1 pointsby wagerlabsabout 16 years ago
What is the market for whole-disk encryption software for the Mac? It seems to be cornered by PGP right now but I wonder if there's room for another player (me).<p>Yes, I can write the whole thing, EFI-pre boot prompt and IOKit driver included. The question is should I?<p><pre><code> Thanks, Joel </code></pre> --- http://linkedin.com/in/joelreymont

I don't think many people need whole-disk encryption; for the vast majority of situations, encrypted home directories are sufficient (and support for this is provided in OS X).

The market (as in people who will pay) appears to be the enterprise, so how are your sales skills?
