In this video, we're going to be giving you the steps showing how to encrypt, decrypt and recover your Mac hard drive.

So, encryption is a tool that essentially encrypts the hard drive to make it scrambled so that it is more secure, and if your Mac is lost or stolen, nobody can access that data. The great thing is that some software is built into every Mac to allow you to easily encrypt your hard drive. So we're going to cover that and the steps on how to decrypt your hard drive and recover your hard drive if you have lost some data.

So, let's now show you how to encrypt and decrypt the hard drive on your Mac. We are running macOS Monterey for this demo, but if you're running a different version of macOS, that is fine; the steps will be very similar.

1. First, we need to open up the system preferences, which you can access from the very top left-hand corner of the apple logo, clicking on that and then navigating to system preferences.

2. We then navigate to security and privacy to select file vault, and then down the very bottom, we need to now unlock the lock icon so that we can make changes. Enter in your password, and then that will be opened.

3. Turn the file vault on. For this, you'll need to unlock your disk with your password.

4. There are two ways to recover and set a password for this encryption; one is to use your iCloud account the other one is to develop a recovery key.

5. We first look at the recovery key option. So we're going to go and select that and say we do not want to use our iCloud account. Now your recovery key will be shown on the screen. You want to make sure that you copy that and save it in a secure location because you will need this to recover your data, but the recommendation is to always use your iCloud account.

6. The hard drive will then begin encrypting. The encryption may take several hours to complete, but once it's done, you'll notice that the file vault is now turned on, and you can easily turn it off if you need to.

So we've gone through the steps on how to encrypt the hard drive, make your hard drive secure
so that that hard drive is scrambled and only you have the key to be able to unlock it if it's lost stolen, and only you have that key to be able to open and decrypt that hard drive
