Name Hidden containers Pre-boot authentication Single sign-on Custom authentication Multiple keys Passphrase strengthening Hardware acceleration TPM Filesystems Two-factor authentication
  1. Windows 7 introduces Bitlocker-To-Go which supports NTFS, FAT32 or exFAT, however for hard drive encryption, Windows Vista and later are limited to be installable only on NTFS volumes
  2. BitLocker can be used with a TPM PIN + external USB key for two-factor authentication
  3. An external tool can be used to read the key from the TPM and then have the key passed on to dm-crypt/LUKS via the standard input
  4. The current situation around TrueCrypt project is controversial. On 28.05.2014 after many years of development and broad usage the open-source (although anonymous) project was suddenly stopped, and all previous official materials and complete (encrypt/decrypt) binaries were withdrawn from its website citing some "unfixed security issues" and Windows XP end of support. The technical information herein is valid only for previous versions of TrueCrypt (v7.1a and some earlier). The latest available version (v7.2) is decrypt only, its authenticity and actual reasons behind the move are unclear, and its usage is not recommended. http://www.zdnet.com/truecrypt-quits-inexplicable-7000029994/
