![]() #CRACK TRUECRYPT CODE#Economically speaking, it will be difficult to find an intentional subversion.Īn analysis of the code within the current auditing framework will not alleviate the suspicion. TC, on the other hand, looks good, sleek, well documented and there aren’t good and known-safe alternatives. Still, they needed Snowden to show the proof. When the NSA subverted the Dual_EC_DRBG, experts grew suspicious from the beginning since there was no advantage at all, just disadvantages, to that algorithm. If the NSA is also in that corner of the ring, then it is a safe bet that it can put some very sharp individuals to subvert the code. And if the developer is legit, still he can screw up – see openSSL. Auditors need to comb the code with the same level of suspicion as the guy who finds a USB stick on the street and wants to see what’s in it on his home computer. Since the TC developer(s) are anonymous, there is no established trust in them. In the ring we have, on one corner, 2 code auditors that look through major, but not all, parts of the code for a couple of months (and for Phase 2 probably 1-2 crypto experts will get onboard), while in the other corner we have the TC developers and possibly some gov agencies. The basic question that a sophisticated user asks is:Ĭould containers and /or partitions resist gov agencies attack, and are there back-doors, weak implementation or glaring design/programming flaws in the code? However, after reading the Phase I report, I am not so sure anymore. Initially, I was excited to hear about the audit plans of TC.
