A'ight so I've got a 32GB flash drive which I store all of my important shit that I need for work, and want to encrypt it so it requires a password upon opening. Are there any software out there that can enable me to encrypt the flash drive, whilst also being able to view it on Mac OS, as well as Windows 10?

The reason being is that my main workstation at home is a PC, and my mainly driver that I take to work is an Apple Macbook which I have dual booted to run Windows 10 on the side.

If anyone could help me w/ this, or can recommend some software, I'll drop some rep.

Thanks in advance

There is a program called VeraCrypt, that is available for Windows and Unix based system's(Mac OS, and Linux). It should let you do exactly what you are looking for.

VeraCrypt is probably your best bet since you are working on multiple operating systems. However recently there have been some security flaws found in VeraCrypt during an audit.
