The only reason I didn't cite Compusec (although I've posted about them
for years) is that they say they encrypt the "entire" hard disk rather
than the "full" hard disk. But clearly the terminological usage of CE-
Infosys agrees with the other vendors even if they chose an equivalent
rather than identical adjective to describe their product.
