Is it possible to determine what crypto-type (aes, twofish, blowfish, etc) that has been used to crypt a file by just looking in the file examining its content?
If not it maybe would be possible to increase security be allowing many different crypto-types in the system and create a small script used for seting up the crypto-loop that takes the crypto-type as an arg:
Script "loop": ---------------------------------------- #!/bin/sh if [ -z "$1" ]; then echo "Usage: $0 <crypto-type>" exit 0 fi losetup -e $1 /dev/loop0 /.cryptfile mount /.cryptfile /mnt/mycrypt ----------------------------------------
Any comments?
