Hi! Just today I saw "test disk" from http://www.cgsecurity.org/ while being at work. I didn´t run it at home on my own disc but my question might be a serious concern. As "test disk" is able to restore overwritten/shredded (dev/urandom) or erased (dev/zero) partitions, how secure is encrypted root as aespipe reads data from one partition, pipes it through aes and writes it back to the same partition? In case you can restore a shredded partition with such a tool, what can you do with data encrypted by aespipe??? This has nothing to do with watermark or code attacks. It´s just the fear that someone could recover all data in a state *before* it was piped through aespipe. Is this a real problem or just neglectable?
