dm-crypt with LUKS versus loop-AES multi-key v3

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Did I ask the wrong question?

I haven't heard any more feedback. My last post gives an idea of the
amount for brute force work it would take to break the loop-AES system.
AES itself only has 256 bits maximum, but loop-AES is using 64 keys,
instead of one, plus a random IV.

Is dm-crypt only 256 bits secure when using AES cipher and using a USB
stick with it? I'm trying to understand how the USB stick fits in for a
start, and how large the master key is when operated like this. Anyone?
Can't be that hard can it?
