In conclusion: An excellent program, best recommended for advanced users. Anyway, it is best if one reads the 'Help' section and the program's documentation, otherwise, one might create system instability or even corrupt data. However, due to the complexity of the program, all these features can make it difficult to use for beginners. So, if you fail to provide the correct keyfile, even though you are in possession of the correct password, you won't be able to open an encrypted volume. The content of the keyfile is combined with the password. Any file can be a keyfile (avi, zip, rar, mp3, etc.). Pluses: The program has lots of pluses such as keyfiles.

The program will notify you when the chosen password is too weak and can easily be broken by brute force or dictionary attacks. Of course, the access to the encrypted volumes is secured by passwords. The encrypted volume size can be customized in order to have enough space for your secret files. In order to secure your data, you can choose between several strong AES (Advanced encryption Standard) algorithms such as: Rijndael, Serpent or Twofish with up to 256-bit keys and 128-bit blocks. When a volume is mounted, it can be used just as any partition already existing on the system. The wizard will also offer you additional information about algorithms or other features.Īfter the volumes have been created, they will be mounted for use and unmounted for securing data. Encrypted volumes can be created using the wizard. A perpetrator can be deceived by storing non-relevant data in the visible volume, when the important data will be kept secret and undetected. Hidden volumes can be created within a visible encrypted volume. TrueCrypt can create three types of encrypted volumes: file-hosted (container) ,partition/device-hosted or you can encrypt an entire partition or system drive.Ī very useful feature of this program is the fact that it allows you to create visible or hidden encrypted vaults.

I found topics concerningcompiling errors and other things, but I will tell you in my experience the easiest way I found to install this, (and it works!):ġ.) Download Truecrypt from their site. After scouring the 'net for a couple of frustrating hours, I came across several outdated forums concerning the installation of Truecrypt on Centos 5.5. I am currently running the 2.6.18-194.26.1.el5 kernel on my CentOS 5.5 client. However, it does not agree with RHEL/CentOS 5.5 very well. As you all may know by now, Truecrypt 7.0 works like a charm with RHEL 6 and Fedora 14.
