Add support for BLAKE2s as new PRF algorithm for both system encryption and standard volumes. Legacy volumes using any of them cannot be mounted by VeraCrypt anymore.

Complete removal of RIPEMD160 and GOST89 algorithms. Version 1.25.9 can be used to mount or convert TrueCrypt volumes. Reference: CCSS,NSA comment at page 3: Issue unlikely to happen thanks to random generator properties but this check must be added to prevent attacks Security: Ensure that XTS primary key is different from the secondary key when creating volumes

Provides plausible deniability, in case an adversary forces you to reveal the password: Hidden volume (steganography) and hidden operating system.Īlso Available: Download VeraCrypt for Mac.

Encryption can be hardware-accelerated on modern processors.

Parallelization and pipelining allow data to be read and written as fast as if the drive was not encrypted.

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 a USB flash drive or hard drive.

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

It also can convert them to Vera Crypt format. This is acceptable to the legitimate owner but it makes it much harder for an attacker to gain access to the encrypted data. This enhanced security adds some delay ONLY to the opening of encrypted partitions without any performance impact on the application use phase. It also solves many vulnerabilities and security issues found in TrueCrypt. It adds enhanced security to the algorithms used for system and partitions encryption making it immune to new developments in brute-force attacks. It can load TrueCrypt volume and it offers the possibility to convert TC containers and non-system partitions to the app format. VeraCrypt also solves many vulnerabilities and security issues found in TrueCrypt. VeraCrypt picks up from where TrueCrypt left and it adds enhanced security to the algorithms used for system and partitions encryption making it immune to new developments in brute-force attacks. VeraCrypt is a free disk encryption software for Windows PC.
