Q: How to make an encrypted disk image?
There is a method of creating an encrypted disk image (xxxxx.dmg) that can be used to keep files on your hard drive that need to kept secret. Double-click on the dmg, enter the password and the disk mounts on your desktop. I have one but I can't remember how I made it! I need another - how is it done?

Reference these two documents. The first was updated last month. The second is older content, but the information is still pertinent with Disk Utility.
- Disk Utility (Yosemite): Create a disk image (Apple)
