VeraCrypt is a free open source disk encryption software for Windows, Mac OSX,
|
|
FreeBSD and Linux. Brought to you by IDRIX (https://www.idrix.fr) and based on
|
|
TrueCrypt 7.1a.
|
|
|
|
VeraCrypt main features:
|
|
|
|
- Creates a virtual encrypted disk within a file and mounts it as a real disk.
|
|
- Encrypts an entire partition or storage device such as USB flash drive or
|
|
hard drive.
|
|
- Encrypts a partition or drive where Windows is installed (pre-boot
|
|
authentication).
|
|
- Encryption is automatic, real-time(on-the-fly) and transparent.
|
|
- Parallelization and pipelining allow data to be read and written as fast as
|
|
if the drive was not encrypted.
|
|
- Encryption can be hardware-accelerated on modern processors.
|
|
- Provides plausible deniability, in case an adversary forces you to reveal the
|
|
password: Hidden volume (steganography) and hidden operating system.
|
|
