VeraCrypt to stop developing Windows application due to Microsoft revoking their driver signing certificate:

https://sourceforge.net/p/veracrypt/discussion/general/thread/9620d7a4b3/

Sorry to hear about this turn of events, but it was pretty much to be expected given the way the world is turning, and Microsoft being Microsoft.

Switch to Linux if you can, and come give Shufflecake a try ;)

Hi @bsi gibt es einen Grund, wieso VeraCrypt nicht für VS-NfD und Geheim zugelassen ist obwohl ihr selbst sogar die Sicherheitsanalyse dafür gemacht habt?

Fehlt es einfach nur in dieser Liste von euch https://www.bsi.bund.de/DE/Themen/Oeffentliche-Verwaltung/Zulassung/Liste-zugelassener-Produkte/liste-zugelassener-produkte_node.html
oder steckt da mehr dahinter?

Microsoft gave FBI a set of BitLocker encryption keys to unlock suspects’ laptops

https://techcrunch.com/2026/01/23/microsoft-gave-fbi-a-set-of-bitlocker-encryption-keys-to-unlock-suspects-laptops-reports/

Because, of course, by default, BitLocker recovery keys are uploaded to Microsoft’s cloud, and it looks like you need to pay for the privilege of having the Pro edition if you want to have the option of opting out.

Reject this BS. Use proper disk encryption! Or, even better, if you care about plausible deniability, use Shufflecake! https://shufflecake.net/

We stumbled onto an interesting HackerNews submission about Graphene OS, the secure AOSP mobile OS. The topic is about the request for a GOS duress password feature that, instead of wiping the device (as it does now), unlocks a "decoy" user profile. A comment by a user claiming to be an official GOS community mod caught our attention. We would like to respond to the arguments of that user. [continue...]

Вскрытие криптоконтейнера через дамп оперативной памяти

Как говорится, Добрый день! Сегодня хотелось бы обсудить с вами тему криптоконтейнеров и их вскрытия. С каждым годом всё более острым становится вопрос безопасности данных, а также вопрос их надежного хранения. Именно в данном случае нам на помощь приходит технология хранения данных в криптоконтейнерах.

@Ange cool idea, but that goes more in the direction of #steganography which is a different topic, that's why I didn't mention it. But, yes, that can be done! Actually, since #shufflecake (like #truecrypt and #veracrypt ) does not have cleartext headers, the same technique could be used seaminglessly!

I'm doing some research for my WiP by retaking the Coursera Cryptography course. I think it hasn't been updated in the 10 or so years since I last did it.

The lecturer actually references TrueCrypt as an example of disk encryption. TrueCrypt was abandoned in 2014 for reasons unknown. It's considered unsafe.

What is a #safeword in the context of plausible deniability? It's the idea that a user might want to have the "last resort" possibility to surrender to an adversary and prove that she has nothing to hide. The concept would be: If I'm caught by my CS teacher doing non-school activities on my laptop, I can use plausible deniability and be un-prosecutable in front of the principal, but if the police comes knocking at my door, I don't want to get in trouble and I want to comply - and PROVE that I am complying.

With #TrueCrypt this is easy: just give up the decoy password to the principal and the real password to the police. In #Shufflecake and similar systems that's not so easy, because there are many layers of nested secrecy. So "the adversary does not know when he can stop torturing you" because he cannot trust you whatever you say.

Is this good or bad?

In the paper we make the following points.

1) It is actually possible to implement a safeword even on systems such as Shufflecake. It's an easy trick really.

2) The idea of a safeword is SUPER BAD for plausible deniability. Not only you should NOT USE a safeword, but the mere POSSIBILITY of having a safeword degrades the operational security of the scheme.

3) This problem does not seem to have been addressed before on existing constructions, as all of them (even WoORAM-based ones) have the implicit possibility of creating a safeword.

4) We propose an idea to make Shufflecake "safeword-free"! This is future work but it's definitely going to be implemented at some point. The idea is that we can make ANY kind of safeword-like feature impossible by implementing a nice hack to have potentially INFINITE nested volumes (rather than limited by an artificial hard-limit, which is 15 in the current implementation).

Cool stuff IMHO.
