What happens in situations like this if you use a hidden volume within an encrypted file using something like Truecrypt, which allows plausible deniability? You've supplied the "password" but the real meaty stuff is still hidden away...

- DanBC 13y agoHidden volumes are often done wrong and trivially easy for 'them' to find. Under UK law the rule isn't to hand over the keys so they can decrypt the ciphertext, but to make the plaintext available.
- kamjam 13y agoYes, I understand that, but if you have 2 passwords, each of which unlocks different plaintext within your encrypted conatainer, then theoretically you could never be found out... (but as you saying, assuming the implementation is correct)
