How to Access BitLocker Encrypted Drives in macOS & Mac OS X?

Updated on July 29, 2023 by Admin to BitLocker Reader for Mac

I have an external disk that is encrypted by BitLocker under Windows, and I recently purchased a MacBook Pro, unfortunately I can't access this BitLocker encrypted drive in Mac OS. Please help me, how do I access BitLocker encrypted drives in Mac?

I have to say that the BitLocker encrypted drive cannot be accessed directly in Mac operating system. Why? This is because the BitLocker drive encryption algorithm is a proprietary algorithm developed by Microsoft for the Windows operating system, and the Mac operating system does not provide support for reading and writing BitLocker encrypted drives. To access a BitLockr drive in Mac, we have to use a third-party BitLocker solution for Mac, such as Hasleo BitLocker Anywhere For Mac.

Hasleo BitLocker Anywhere For Mac is a simple and easy-to-use software designed primarily to access BitLocker encrypted erives in Mac. With this software, you can easily mount a BitLocker drive and then read and write the drive as securely as you read and write to a Mac's native drive.
