...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. All released files are PGP signed with key ID=0x680D16DE, available on key servers and downloadable at https://www.idrix.fr/VeraCrypt/VeraCrypt_PGP_public_key.asc VeraCrypt can mount TrueCrypt volumes. It also can convert them to VeraCrypt format. Documentation: https://www.veracrypt.fr/en/Documentation.html FAQ : https://www.veracrypt.fr/en/FAQ.html

...It takes a string and brute-forces a prefix for it so that the hash of the string with the prefix has a certain number of leading zeroes. But that alone would've been too easy to hack. To prevent an attacker from forging the keys by generating a new prefix: the hash latch doesn't output the keys in the plaintext. Instead, it encrypts the key and outputs the ciphertext. That means that instead of giving you the actual key, it gives you a safe containing the key. This approach allows the hash latch to protect itself from forged keys and also enables you to put the same key into multiple safes without the recipients of these safes knowing they have the same key (even if they compare their ciphertexts). ...

This program checks the namespace of the password input ([a-z][A-Z][0-9][`-/]) and then determine the total number of passwords that an attacker might go through to brute-force the password. This is currently and ALPHA program, and as such everything that you "get" out of it should be examined closely.

This program demonstrates a weakness in the authentication process of 802.1X EAP-MD5 in Wi-Fi networks that allows an attacker to gain login information by a dictionary attack. A Wi-Fi compliant card (802.11a,b,g) that supports monitor-mode is required.
