I am blogging this merely for the useful term 'cryptowonktastic'

(((Without NTK, we might have gone years

without the coinage of this fab neologism.)))

TRACKING sufficiently advanced technology : the gathering

"Despite the naysayers in the recent "My key size is more

enormous than yours" mini-discussion on Slashdot, the

(heavily concealed) truth is that TRUECRYPT is probably the

most actively developed storage encryption system - this

week at least. Based on the old Encryption For The Masses

Windows program, it's recently been ported to Linux, and can

Mac OS X be far away? It has a nice line in "false-bottomed"

volumes, which means that you can give the password to one

encrypted volume without revealing the existence of another,

giving rubber-hosed attackers an excuse to torture you two or

three times. It can sit around on USB keys and, despite the

usual cryptowonktastic choice of cyphers, is actually

reasonably straightforward to use, leaving you time to

actively do something subversive enough to fill more than

a GPGed textfile."
