Yes. This software is most effective whenever your laptop is actually powered off. Your laptop is powered off whenever it is in the ‘shutdown’ or ‘hibernated’ states. Sleep or standby is not enough. If you hibernate instead of shutdown, you will be required to login to the encryption software login screen.
