<p>Such encrypted volumes, like the Persistent Storage, are not hidden.</p>
 
<p>An attacker in possession of the device can know that there is an encrypted
volume on it. Take into consideration that you can be forced or tricked to give
out its passphrase.</p>
 
<h2 id="comparison">Comparison between <i>LUKS</i> and <i>VeraCrypt</i></h2>
 
You can also open *VeraCrypt* encrypted volumes in Tails. *VeraCrypt* is a disk encryption tool for Windows, macOS, and Linux. [[See our documentation about *VeraCrypt*.|veracrypt]]

<h1 id="creating">Creating an encrypted partition</h1>
 
Choose **Apps&nbsp;▸ Utilities&nbsp;▸ Disks** to open the *Disks* utility.
 
<h2 id="identifying">Identifying your external storage device</h2>
 
The *Disks* utility lists all the current storage devices on the left side of the screen.
 
Plug in the external storage device that you want to use.
 
A new device appears in the list of storage devices. Click on it.

1. Check that the description of the device on the right side of the screen
corresponds to your device: its brand, its size, etc.
 
<h2 id="formatting">Formatting the device</h2>
 
Click on the [[!img lib/view-more.png alt="Drive Options" class="symbolic" link="no"]] button in the title bar and choose **Format Disk** to erase all the existing partitions on the device.
 
In the **Format Disk** dialog:
Na caixa de diálogo **Formatar disco**:
If you want to overwrite all data on the device, choose **Overwrite existing data with zeroes** in the **Erase** menu.
 
<div class="caution">
<p>Overwriting existing data does not erase all data on flash
memories, such as USB sticks and SSDs (Solid-State Drives).</p>
 
<p>See the [[limitations of file deletion|doc/encryption_and_privacy/secure_deletion#spare]].</p>
 
</div>
</div>
Choose **Compatible with all systems and devices (MBR/DOS)** in the **Partitioning** menu.
 
Click **Format**.
 
In the confirmation dialog, make sure that the device is correct.
 
<h2 id="partition">Creating a new encrypted partition</h2>
 
Now the schema of the partitions in the middle of the screen shows an empty device:
 
[[!img empty_device.png class="screenshot" alt="Free Space 123 GB"]]
 
Click on the **[[!img lib/list-add.png alt="Create partition" class="symbolic" link="no"]]** button to create a new partition on the device.
 
1. Configure the various settings of your new partition in the
partition creation assistant:
 
In the **Create Partition** screen:
 
**Partition Size**: you can create a partition on the whole device or only on part of it.
 
In the example below, we are creating a partition of 4.0 GB on a device of 8.1 GB.
