Window RT and BitLocker give you an extra of security.

Any owner of a tablet with Window RT like Surface it must know that all its files are automatically encrypted through the BitLocker system, so you have an extra of safety.

We continue to receive good news about the security of the files and documents, that so many news of espionage of the NSA, and others that we probably don´t know, are welcome.

From window vista, Microsoft created a set of encryption through which you could encrypt your files so that they were safe, this system is called BitLocker, and allows you to encrypt files so they cannot be used or viewed by third parties, i.e., to increase the security of your documents and private archives, before it had to be manually, but now just know that Window RT in Surface is synchronized with BitLocker to encrypt each file automatically, by what you won´t have to worry about encrypting them to obtain this security plus.

If Window RT takes off, this could be one of the best advance in safety for consumers, so that in case of theft or that open the SSD to connect to another device and get information, I would ask this password.

I suppose that Microsoft will be in process of adapting this system of automation of BitLocker with Microsoft 8, so that the comfort of no having to encrypt files manually offers much advantage, time and safety to the user.

Here we find other advantage that support to Surface and Window RT as serious competitor in the face of competition, if you already by itself is one of the best tablets, is not yet so well positioned in the minds of consumers as others tablets like the Ipad, but I hope to be a metter of time, since that is unrivalled in productivity.
