KeePass2, VeraCrypt, or BitLocker?

[Guest]

Just wondering which one is the best to use. I believe Bitlocker is only available to some versions of Windows though so I'm not sure if it still counts as competition here. 

 

EDIT - BitLocker is not safe to use. I do not recommend using it.

I've never heard of veracrypt, but, keepass2 is a password manager and bitlocker is for encrypting entire hard drive (partitions). They don't do the same thing.

so keepass2 is just for managing passwords? nothing else?

Veracrypt has some good features if you are interested in encryption.

 

Bitlocker is good and handy and will keep common criminals out, but it's hard to say if it has any government back doors in it, since Microsoft have never published the code. There has been quite a number of posts online about it.

Veracrypt it is then, I don't really trust Microsoft with any of my data

Is keypass2 just a password manager then? does it do anything else?

Yes, it is just a password manager. I use it all the time.

I found myself in searching of more security videos on YouTube and I just saw how easy it was to bypass BitLocker. Anyone using BitLocker, it is not safe and I highly recommend something else.
