What are my options for full system (or at least home directory) encryption? I stand corrected. I was unaware that once FileVault was turned on for an account, one needs to enter a master password to change that account's password even when using another admin account. (I just verified this on my machine) |

What are my options for full system (or at least home directory) encryption? Unfortunately FileVault is nowhere near as secure as whole disk encryption; it's even less secure than simply having a truecrypt volume. This is because FileVault simply employs user permissions to restrict access to its contents, which can be easily overcome if an attacker has physical access to your machine. |
