EFS vs Bitlocker
Is there any advantage in using bitlocker, to maintain the protected data from internet abuse, comparing to the normal EFS folder/file encryption? Excluding the risk of direct acess (stolen computer, hd drive, etc). Best Regards Ricardo Dias

Apart from what you already know, there is no other advantage of using bitlocker. To protect from hard disk getting stolen or laptop getting stolen so that no one access your confidential data - Use bitlocker To encrypt files + folders = Use EFSManoj Sehgal

HI, When you use Bitlocker, You must be an administrator to turn BitLocker encryption on or off on the drive that Windows is installed on and on fixed data drives. But You do not have to be an administrator to use EFS.
