Unfortunately they still might ask you to fire up your laptop, give the password, find the truecrypt volume and then ask you the password for that.

- e_proxus 13y agoYou can use a TrueCrypt hidden volume for that. Fill up a normal volume with some plausible data and use the hidden volume for your actual files. http://www.truecrypt.org/docs/hidden-volume http://www.truecrypt.org/docs/hidden-volume
- pearjuice 13y agoIf they were actually on you, they would find the hidden volume too.
- Spearchucker 13y agoSorry, my post was a bit sparse on detail. I keep a TC volume (file) on three separate public file shares. My laptop is clean. I download and install TruCrypt, and download the TC volume once I'm through customs. When I say clean, I mean that there's no trace of anything on any of my devices while I cross a border. That means there's no TrueCrypt, and no TrueCrypt volume on my laptop at all. Why should there be? We have the Internet.
- hiroprot 13y agoOf course, after they have your personal details, they'll now do an Internet search and find this post. You just gave them your game plan ;)
- Spearchucker 13y agoIndeed I did. But how would anyone prove that this scenario isn't just hypothetical?
