[freenet-support] elettra, a supplementary way to encrypt files on your harddisk
I happened to find this, on another mailing list. Elettra might be supplementary to freenet users, a supplementary way to encrypt important data on your harddisk? This might saw some ideas to the Freenet people. WHAT'S ELETTRA ? Elettra is a software providing plausible deniable cryptography. It supports a dynamic number of files and requires a password for each file. When you need to decrypt a file, the password is able to find in the encrypted archive the file related to it. the security measure is in the protection of the number of files encrypted in the archive, because the algorithm is thought to give a plausible ammission that the data unencrypted is simple random data, and only one file is encrypted in it.

It could be quite useful to encrypt downloads though, and/or Freenet itself...

You could use it for your Freesite files and/or private keys, but yeah no better than TrueCrypt I would think.
