...It aims to support all major operating systems and is written in pure Go. Sensitive data is encrypted and authenticated in memory with XSalsa20Poly1305. The scheme used also defends against cold-boot attacks. Memory allocation bypasses the language runtime by using system calls to query the kernel for resources directly. This avoids interference from the garbage collector. Buffers that store plaintext data are fortified with guard pages and canary values to detect spurious accesses and overflows. The effort is taken to prevent sensitive data from touching the disk. ...

VeraCrypt is a free disk encryption software brought to you by IDRIX (https://www.idrix.fr) and based on TrueCrypt 7.1a. It adds enhanced security to the algorithms used for system and partitions encryption making it immune to new developments in brute-force attacks. It also solves many vulnerabilities and security issues found in TrueCrypt. This enhanced security adds some delay ONLY to the opening of encrypted partitions without any performance impact to the application use phase. This is acceptable to the legitimate owner but it makes it much harder for an attacker to gain access to the encrypted data. ...

Ascon is a new family of authenticated encryption algorithms, submitted to the CAESAR competition for authenticated ciphers. The Ascon family was designed to be lightweight and easy to implement, even with added countermeasures against side-channel attacks. This project is licensed under the ISC License.

...You have full control to encrypt the images multiple times with different passwords. Decrypting an image with a wrong password will not result in a ‘wrong password’ message, but in a useless noisy image which makes automated brute force attacks very difficult.

HTTPBrute is used to calculate HTTP Digest Access Authentication as per RFC 2617. The tool will be able to perform brute force attacks to retrieve a lost password for a given Authentication response. MD5 is the only hashing algorithm implemented.
