With <span class="application">VeraCrypt</span> you can store your files
encrypted in two different kinds of *volumes*:
- *File containers*. A file container is a single big file inside which you can
store several files encrypted, a bit like a ZIP file.
- *Partitions (or entire disk)*. Usually USB sticks and hard disks have a single
partition of their entire size but they can also be split into several
partitions. This way you can encrypted a whole USB stick for example.
