VeraCrypt continues from where TrueCrypt left and it adds improved security to the algorithms used for partitions and system encryption making it invulnerable to new developments in brute force attacks.
VeraCrypt also repairs many vulnerabilities and security problems discovered in TrueCrypt. The program is able to load TrueCrypt volumes and it provides the option to transform TrueCrypt containers and other partitions to VeraCrypt format.
VeraCrypt is able to create multiple encrypted containers or encrypt already existing drives, allowing you to specify custom parameters suitable to your needs.
This improved security will add some lag only to the accessing of encrypted partitions without affecting the performance of the program's use phase. This is tolerable to the legitimate owner but it makes it much more tougher for an attacker to get access to the encrypted information.
Pros
- Able of encrypting files.
- Make numerous fine tweaks.
Cons
- The formats of VeraCrypt's storage containers are not compatible with TrueCrypt.
