cryptsetup - manage plain dm-crypt and LUKS encrypted volumes


Синопсис (Synopsis)

Описание (Description)

cryptsetup is used to conveniently setup dm-crypt managed device- mapper mappings. These include plain dm-crypt volumes and LUKS volumes. The difference is that LUKS uses a metadata header and can hence offer more features than plain dm-crypt. On the other hand, the header is visible and vulnerable to damage.

In addition, cryptsetup provides limited support for the use of loop-AES volumes, TrueCrypt, VeraCrypt and BitLocker compatible volumes.
