Mac OS X
Q: My Disk Utility doesn't have encryption option.
I'm trying to format a thumb drive that I can encrypt. But my disk utility doesn't have the drop down option for encryption. Do I have an outdated utility? OS X El Capitan 10.11.5
In Finder, when attempting to encrypt, I get an error message saying "A GUID Partition Table (GPT) partitioning scheme is required".
Suggestions please.
iMac, OS X El Capitan (10.11.5)

A storage device divides into individual partitions,
which are listed as separate volumes under the Devices section in the Finder sidebar or in Disk Utility.
