TrueCrypt 6.0 Download – Securing Important Data on Laptops
Stumble it!If you are looking to secure all your important data, specially for your laptops, TrueCrypt is the software for you. TrueCrypt is a great application which establishes and maintains your encrypted laptop drive. The entire file system is encrypted (i.e., file names, folder names, contents of every file, and free space).
TrueCrypt is a free open-source disk encryption software for Windows Vista/XP, Mac OS X, and Linux and some of it’s features are
- 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.
- Provides two levels of plausible deniability, in case an adversary forces you to reveal the password:
1) Hidden volume (steganography – more information may be found here).
2) No TrueCrypt volume can be identified (volumes cannot be distinguished from random data).
- Encryption algorithms: AES-256, Serpent, and Twofish. Mode of operation: XTS.
