Ένα πρόγραμμα κρυπτογράφησης που χρησιμοποιείται ευρέως δεν είναι πλέον υπό ανάπτυξη και οι υπεύθυνοι προειδοποιούν τους χρήστες ότι το εργαλείο δεν είναι πλέον ασφαλές για χρήση. Πρόκειται για την application TrueCrypt.
"Warning: using TrueCrypt you are not safe," he says the SourceForge TrueCrypt page.
According to the announcement, development of the service stopped this month after Microsoft stopped it support on Windows XP.
The developers of the application advise users to change encryption to and use BitLocker, even providing a quick guide showing how to transfer the data to the new tool.
TrueCrypt has been in existence for over a decade as a free private encryption tool. It quickly became a must program for those who wanted to encrypt sensitive files or entire hard drives.
So TrueCrypt's warning that the program is not safe has caused many conversations.
