It's A Digital Disease!

Is there a way to encrypt and access files on an SSD, without having to actually install e.g. VeraCrypt on every device I will try to read the files from? On Mac this just simply works with Disk Utility, but for every other OS? I'm constantly on the go and need still protection to my files. How do I do that? Is there something that does this? Or could I just install a portable version of VeraCrypt onto the SSD and use it to encrypt the encrypted container from that same SSD?

It's a 2TB SSD and it contains a lot of files for work (I'm self-employed) and "the cloud" is too slow for my workflow.

Thanks!
