Might look odd if none of the files on the decoy have been modified in the last 6 months - logging in to do this regularly and in a believably meaningful way seems like a burden. The good news is unless you're an international crime lord, it seems unlikely there will be anyone on hand in the court to make this kind of leap (not a lawyer so that guess could be way off though).
- jpdoctor 15y agoAn automated update of the decoy would be a good addition to such software.
- fl3tch 15y agoNot sure exactly how this would be implemented, but it sounds like a bad idea, since they would just wait for your automated updater to decrypt the decoy. Even if it was in some limited fashion, the encryption key would be in RAM, so it would be as vulnerable as any running system. (BTW, if you're worried about a state-level adversary, that means you should always turn off your computer when not using it, and wait a few minutes before physically leaving it to prevent a cold boot attack)
- esrauch 15y agoWell, the point of the decoy i that you don't care if they can access it isn't it?
