+VeraCrypt picks up from where TrueCrypt left and it adds enhanced security to the algorithms used for system and partitions encryption making it immune to new developments in brute-force attacks.
+VeraCrypt also solves many vulnerabilities and security issues found in TrueCrypt. It can load TrueCrypt volume and it offers the possibility to convert TrueCrypt containers and non-system partitions to VeraCrypt format

 With "Secure Windows Shutdown" it's super simple: just select the path or directory you want to get removed safely and afterwards windows will be shutdown automatically.
+====== LURKS ======
+From: https://gitlab.com/cryptsetup/cryptsetup/
+Cryptsetup is utility used to conveniently setup disk encryption based
+on DMCrypt kernel module.
+These include plain dm-crypt volumes, LUKS volumes, loop-AES
+and TrueCrypt (including VeraCrypt extension) format.
+Project also includes veritysetup utility used to conveniently setup
+DMVerity block integrity checking kernel module
+and, since version 2.0,  integritysetup to setup
+DMIntegrity block integrity kernel module.
+LUKS Design
+LUKS is the standard for Linux hard disk encryption. By providing a standard on-disk-format, it does not
+only facilitate compatibility among distributions, but also provides secure management of multiple user passwords.
+In contrast to existing solution, LUKS stores all setup necessary setup information in the partition header,
+enabling the user to transport or migrate his data seamlessly.

 Until now it has been surprisingly difficult to password protect a folder on Mac OS X. Now, Espionage is here to solve that problem for good. By encrypting only what is necessary, Espionage lets you stay secure while avoiding the penalties of encrypting too much.
