About BitLocker
BitLocker Drive Encryption is a data protection feature that integrates with the operating system and addresses the threats of data theft or exposure from lost, stolen, or inappropriately decommissioned computers. BitLocker provides the most protection when used with a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) version 1.2 or later. The TPM is a hardware component installed in many newer computers by the computer manufacturers. It works with BitLocker to help protect user data and to ensure that a computer has not been tampered with while the system was offline. On computers that do not have a TPM version 1.2 or later, you can still use BitLocker to encrypt the Windows operating system drive. However, this implementation will require the user to insert a USB startup key to start the computer or resume from hibernation. Starting with Windows 8, you can use an operating system volume password to protect the operating system volume on a computer without TPM.

"BitLocker is used in my Organization"
Posted 2021-09-17Pros: BitLocker is easy to use and I'm assuming that it is securing my laptop from unwanted log ins. So far I have not lost track of my computer but if I do I feel that someone won't be able to access my file.
Cons: I don't like the fact that it times out on the reboot. If I reboot my computer and walk away for too long I have to power it back up.
Overall: Overall this seems to give me a sense of security with my laptop as I work from home a lot so it is in transit and in multiple places. It's easy to change my PIN when I need to so that is a plus.
