Taryn BitLocker Manager

Taryn BitLocker Manager is our new security product that helps you better manage all of the hard drives, as well as flash drives, using BitLocker Drive Encryption.  BitLocker Drive Encryption is available in the x86 (32-bit) and x64 (64-bit) versions of Windows Vista Enterprise/Ultimate, Windows Server 2008 Standard/Enterprise/Datacenter, Windows 7 Enterprise/Ultimate and Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard/Enterprise/Datacenter (Server 2008 R2 is not available in an x86 version).

Taryn BitLocker Manager is now available as a public beta.  The beta software has a hard-coded license that will allow you to use it until March 31, 2010, after which it will stop working.  The current beta build is TBM Beta 6, version 1.0.3615.40116.  The application is digitally signed by Dojo North Software.

The application is a single executable - no installation required.  Just put the EXE anywhere you want it, create a shortcut (if you want) and you're all set!  The application will trigger a UAC prompt when run--be sure it's signed by Dojo North Software!  If not, please come back here and download the latest version.
