USB Encryption - Re-uCrypt+

Abstract

TrueCrypt and uCrypt are well developed disk encryption software. They are user-friendly and well-designed since they provide real-time encryption, and they run fast and automatically. Also, they are secure enough to protect the encrypted data. However, both of them do not support recovery feature.

TrueCrypt does not support backdoor implementation. If user forgets the password or loses the keyfile, the only way to get back the data is trying to crack the keyfile or the password but this is impossible because at least several years could be taken. Besides, uCrypt does not support recovery feature. If user loses the uCrypt Key, there is no way for user to recover the data stored on a uCrypt encrypted portable storage device. This will cause data loss. Although there are some key management software for users to manage their keys, the safety of the software depends upon the software providers. This will cause key management problems.

In this regard, Re-uCrypt+ has been developed. It is an advanced system of uCrypt as the solution to the losing key problem of uCrypt without security issues, and a total solution and comprehensive software system.
