VeraCrypt - Free Open source disk encryption with strong security for the
Paranoid
</title>

content="VeraCrypt is free open-source disk encryption software for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. In case an attacker forces you to reveal the password, VeraCrypt provides plausible deniability. In contrast to file encryption, data encryption performed by VeraCrypt is real-time (on-the-fly), automatic, transparent, needs very little memory, and does not involve temporary unencrypted files."

<p>
Windows and Linux versions of VeraCrypt offer to use EMV compliant
smart cards as a feature. Indeed, the use of PKCS#11 compliant smart
cards is dedicated to users with more or less cybersecurity skills.
However, in some situations, having such a card strongly reduces the
plausible deniability of the user.
</p>
<p>
To overcome this problem, the idea is to allow the use of a type of
smart card owned by anyone: EMV compliant smart cards. According to
the standard of the same name, these cards spread all over the world
are used to carry out banking operations. Using internal data of the
user's EMV card as keyfiles will strengthen the security of his volume
while keeping his denial plausible.
