Some years ago, I’ve used TrueCrypt to create encrypted containers for storing sensitive files. However, TrueCrypt is nowadays considered insecure and I’m on macOS Sierra 10.12 now – time for another solution. Luckily, macOS has integrated means for creating encrypted containers and saving sensitive information in it. You don’t need any additional software for this. As far as I know, this solution also works for previous versions of Mac OS X, like Mac OS X 10.11 (El Capitan) and Mac OS X 10.10 (Yosemite).
