VeraCrypt’s source code was independently audited by Quarkslab in 2016, and all vulnerabilities found were addressed in the following version. VeraCrypt has patched many vulnerabilities and security issues that were found in TrueCrypt, which could already be considered a secure system.īecause there’s no server authentication or direct sharing capability, VeraCrypt’s security is actually relatively simple, which means there are fewer avenues for potential attack. Then there are four hash algorithms (SHA-512, Whirlpool, SHA-256, and Streebog). VeraCrypt supports five encryption algorithms (AES XTS, Serpent, Twofish, Camellia, and Kuznyechik), and as you can combo them together there are really 15 options for the encryption algorithm. VeraCrypt supports 15 different combinations of encryption algorithms (Image credit: IDRIX) Security
