Live System Analysis: Discovering Encrypted Disk Volumes
The wide spread of full-disk encryption makes live system analysis during incident response a challenge, but also an opportunity. A timely detection of full-disk encryption or a mounted crypto container allows experts take extra steps to secure access to encrypted evidence before pulling the plug. What steps are required and how to tell if the system is using full-disk encryption? “We have a tool for that”.

Elcomsoft adds LUKS encryption support
We updated Elcomsoft Forensic Disk Decryptor, Elcomsoft System Recovery and Elcomsoft Distributed Password Recovery with support for Linux partitions protected with LUKS encryption. The tools work together to identify encrypted partitions, extract encryption metadata and launch a full-scale, GPU-accelerated attack on the encryption password.

Breaking LUKS Encryption
LUKS encryption is widely used in various Linux distributions to protect disks and create encrypted containers. Being a platform-independent, open-source specification, LUKS can be viewed as an exemplary implementation of disk encryption. Offering the choice of multiple encryption algorithms, several modes of encryption and several hash functions to choose from, LUKS is one of the tougher disk encryption systems to break.

Protecting Linux and NAS Devices: LUKS, eCryptFS and Native ZFS Encryption Compared
Many Linux distributions including those used in off the shelf Network Attached Storage (NAS) devices have the ability to protect users’ data with one or more types of encryption. Full-disk and folder-based encryption options are commonly available, each with its own set of pros and contras. The new native ZFS encryption made available in OpenZFS 2.0 is designed to combine the benefits of full-disk and folder-based encryption without the associated drawbacks. In this article, we’ll compare the strengths and weaknesses of LUKS, eCryptFS and ZFS encryption.

Volume Encryption in Synology DSM 7.2: LUKS with Questionable Key Management
Synology DSM 7.2 introduced a highly anticipated feature: volume-level encryption. This data protection mechanism works faster and has less limitations than shared folder encryption, which was the only encryption option supported in prior DSM releases. However, upon investigation, we determined that the implementation of the encryption key management mechanism for full-volume encryption fails to meet the expected standards of security for encrypted data for many users.
In this article, we will explore the current implementation of encrypted volumes in DSM 7.2 and shed light on the challenges posed by the existing key vault design.
