Do you know about BitLocker? BitLocker Drive Encryption is a particular function in the Windows platform, with which you can encrypt an entire hard drive or disk volume to enhance data security. Its safety factor is very high, so it’s often used by people to protect the computer’s hard drive and removable disk, such as USB flash drive, memory card, etc.
However, there is one problem: Mac OS doesn’t support BitLocker encrypted drive. When a BitLocker encrypted drive is connected to a Mac device, the contents inside the drive cannot be read and opened normally. This is a distress for users who use a removable disk to work between Windows and Mac platforms, which means they have to first turn off BitLocker encryption for the drive on a Windows device in order to use this drive on a Mac. That is troublesome and sometimes impossible, for example, in the absence of an available Windows computer.
Taking into account the above situation, iSumsoft (now ten years old as a software provider company) has developed the application named BitLocker Reader for Mac, which aims to make it easy for users to unlock and open BitLocker encrypted drives on Mac OS. Here are the key features of this application.
Key Features
1. Unlock BitLocker encrypted drive on Mac OS
iSumsoft BitLocker Reader for Mac allows you to unlock a BitLocker encrypted drive on Mac OS with your BitLocker password or recovery key as if you were unlocking this drive in Windows OS. It supports a variety of hard drives that can be used on a Mac device, such as a removable hard drive, USB flash drive, memory stick, memory card, SD card, etc. Once the BitLocker encrypted drive is unlocked successfully, you can directly open the drive and transfer files between the drive and the Mac device.
2. Mount and Open *.dmg files on Mac OS
This application is not just a BitLocker Reader for Mac, it also comes with the Attach function which allows the user to mount *.dmg files on Mac OS. Although Mac OS itself has the function of mounting *.dmg files, sometimes the user may not be able to mount *.dmg files due to some minor slips or bugs. In this case, this application will help.
3. Easy to use
iSumsoft BitLocker Reader for Mac is designed with a simple and intuitive interface. Whether using the function of unlocking BitLocker drives or opening *.dmg files on Mac OS, the user can complete the task by clicking a few buttons, without any computer techniques required. All users even computer novices can use it with no problem.
