dd_rescue is a generic data copy and transformation tool. It copies data that's only partially readable or overwrites data with random numbers (data protection). It calculates secure hashes via a plugin. Plugins also allow to transform data -- compression and upcoming encryption are supported. The encryption plugin does exclusively support AES (in CTR, CBC or ECB mode) and is highly optimized, using the CPU support on x86 and armv8. The compression plugin uses liblzo.
See my [old page](http://www.garloff.de/kurt/linux/ddrescue/) for more information for now.
Binaries (debian and RPM packages) are available from the Open Build Service: https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/garloff:/storage/
