I'd take the risk only if I had absolutely NO choice to bring it with me (special applications, no computers easily available where I'm going, etc.). And then I'd probably replace the hard drive with another one containing nothing but a strictly functional Linux distro, send my data in advance by mail to where I'm going, or just download the necessary data (encrypted) from a web to be able to work. This is not ideal, but feasible.
) , and, depending on where you're traveling, using someone's (or whatever) computer might be not be an easy option either! Still... carrying a liveCD (or USB stick) with everything you need, is not a bad idea as it could be useful. It could.But if you wanted to carry your data with you in a non-obvious way, I would suggest grabbing an 8GB MicroSD flash card - encrypt your data, put it on it, hide it - I very much doubt that they would be able to find it with a cursory search or even using the airport x-ray machines. Don't carry the reader, otherwise they'll know what to look for - just buy a reader at your destination.-4wd (August 21, 2008, 02:52 AM)
Mailing is definitely a possibility, but an expensive one and not necessarily convenient one -- and soon, of course, we'll learn that all computers sent by mail will be confiscated etc.I realize that serious hackers could get access to my data. I am only trying to block casual users and nosy people.-jdd (August 30, 2008, 09:22 AM)

Q: What is the maximum possible size of a TrueCrypt volume?
A: The maximum possible size of a TrueCrypt volume is 8589934592 GB. However, due to security reasons, the maximum allowed volume size is 1 PB (1,048,576 GB), as the amount of data that is considered secure to be encrypted using a single key depends, among other factors, on the block size of the encryption algorithm. In addition, you need to take into account other limiting factors. For instance, file system constraints, limitations of the hardware connection standard and of the operating system, etc.
I don't care how good they think their product/service/whatever is - if they can't sound like a normal human being instead of a personal fitness trainer they've lost me before they've even begun.-4wd (August 27, 2008, 01:53 AM)
