[SOLVED] How to encrypt a flash drive in Zorin OS?

Hello. So in trying to find out how to encrypt a flash drive, I came across a video on how to do it in Ubuntu. In the video he uses an application called "Disk Utility" and I can't for the life of me find it anywhere on this computer. I can find "cryptsetup" but I have no idea how to use it. Any help would be appreciated :)

Hi, please wait for someone who knows - I avoid encryption like the plague to be honest!

Thank you, but like I said I can't find Disk Utility on this computer. So I can't follow the instructions from the link provided :(

Hi, I still don't have access to Zorin install at the moment but do a search for 'Disks' it could be in there. :D ;)
