What do you guys think about TRESOR? Is it viable protection against cold-boot attacks?

Yeah, okay bud. So, you're comfortable with NSA making a full profile of your life and giving said data to FVEY?

I do on my laptop
I use ubuntu because I keep fucking up manually doing LUKS+LVM with arch

No im not, but encrypting shit and wasting my time on something that doesnt affect me because im not a criminal is stupid and paranoid

I used to encrypt the two flash drives I own that have a copy of what remains of my 4chan folder and stuff but I went from duo 8GB flash drives to 16 then 32 and didn't want to be fucked buying two pairs of 64GB ones to replace my current two 32GB ones so I just uploaded the .txt file containing my passwords to my mega account as well as uploading all really personal stuff I had. Still have personal stuff that tell who I am on the internet on my flash drives among the porn and my modest archive of shit but it's no longer like, extensive lists of conversations I've had and the names of my friends so nothing would be too fucked if someone were to discover them. It's pretty okay. I'd go for full encryption if I didn't already leave my identify liable to being compromised from being an irresponsible dumbass on the net to a few people.

That doesn't make any sense. You're already encrypting your partition, might as well use something that isn't proven to be broken.

I do on my main computers with FileVault 2.

Want to do the same for my Debian home server. Do you really need to reformat the drive? There's no in-place encryption like OS X?

is Truecrypt still safe?

Phase I of the audit on version 7.1a has been completed and no major vulnerabilities have been found. I'd trust it more than any of the open-source for that reason alone.
>>
>>47054967
Who conducted the audit though? and what if that company said it has no vulnerabilities because the NSA wanted them to?

No, because:
1. I know full well that the NSA wouldn't give a shit what's on my hard drive.
2. Hard drive encryption reduces read/write performance.

I have no reason to encrypt my drives, so why would I?

If it's a laptop, you could lose it somehow.

I'm not concerned if some random stranger finds my furry porn, it's not like I keep credit card numbers and passwords on my harddrive.

What encryption algorithm is best on TrueCrypt? does it even matter?
>>
>>47055795
Use straight up AES-256. The others aren't more secure, but they are more slow.

These encryption algorithms are really robust, and it's the implementation of them that's the problem. Truecrypt 7.1a is a solid implementation.
Avoid 7.2

>>47055014
>I know full well that the NSA wouldn't give a shit what's on my hard drive.
Actually the NSA does give a shit about what's on your hard drive- that's the entire fucking problem.
>>
>>47054993
Might as well turn off your computer now and stop using electronics at all if you're this paranoid. This isn't actually the worst idea in the world. It's a good idea if you care about say, the 4th amendment.
You can read the audit.

If you don't have FDE with dm-crypt (no LUKS) and USB boot device that auto ejects, then you don't know SHIT about encryption / OPSEC.

My SSD is completely indistinguishable from random data because it doesn't have LUKS headers.
