#Truecrypt 7.2 mac password#

SourceForge sent emails on 22 May, they said they changed password algorithms and everybody should change their passwords. It's a bit strange to make a website with the hash sums for only one program and only one version of it. Is has only 1 blog record from August 15, 2013, only for TrueCrypt and only for 7.1a. Why I think so: there is a website which contains all the hash sums for TrueCrypt 7.1a. Sad but true.Īssumption #3 7.1a is backdoored and the developer wants all users to stop using it. As many suppose, this could be the sort of warrant canaryĪssumption #2 is more likely true than assumption #1. So why would they suggest such a thing and not other open-source alternatives? It looks like a clear sign that the developer can't say he's in danger so he did this. Why is it ridiculous for TrueCrypt developers to suggest moving to BitLocker? Well, TrueCrypt was strictly against of using TPM because it may contain extra key chains which allow agencies like NSA to extract your private key.

License text is changed too (see the diff below).

Why I think so: all files are with valid signatures, all the releases are available (Windows Linux x86, x86_64, console versions, Mac OS, sources), the binaries seems like was built on the usual developer PC (there are some paths like c:\truecrypt-7.2\driver\obj_driver_release\i386\truecrypt.pdb, which were the same for 7.1a). found the worst vulnerability ever) which made them do such a thing. take down or death) or to TrueCrypt itself (i.e. Why I think so: strange key change, why bitlocker?Īssumption #2 Something bad happened to TrueCrypt developers (i.e. On the SourceForge, the keys were changed before any TrueCrypt files uploaded, but now they are deleted and the old keys got reverted back. All old versions are wiped, the repository is wiped too.Īssumption #1 The website is presumed hacked, the keys are presumed compromised. The binary is signed with the valid (usual) key. Mode of operation: XTS.The binary on the website is capable only to decode encrypted data, not encode, and may contain trojan (seems like it doesn't, but don't believe me).

Encryption algorithms: AES-256, Serpent, and Twofish.

2) No TrueCrypt volume can be identified (volumes cannot be distinguished from random data).

Provides two levels of plausible deniability, in case an adversary forces you to reveal the password: 1) Hidden volume (steganography) and hidden operating system.

Encryption is automatic, real-time (on-the-fly) and transparent.

Encrypts a partition or drive where Windows is installed (pre-boot authentication).

Encrypts an entire partition or storage device such as USB flash drive or hard drive.

Creates a virtual encrypted disk within a file and mounts it as a real disk.

This software is highly recommended for securing data on laptops. The entire file system is encrypted (i.e., file names, folder names, contents of every file, and free space).

Until decrypted, a TrueCrypt volume appears to be nothing more than a series of random numbers. No data stored on an encrypted volume can be read (decrypted) without using the correct password or correct encryption key. On-the-fly encryption means that data are automatically encrypted or decrypted right before they are loaded or saved, without any user intervention. TrueCrypt is a software system for establishing and maintaining an on-the-fly-encrypted drive.
