VeraCrypt Tools

This is a program to obfuscate and disguise VeraCrypt / TrueCrypt container volumes

About the program
Many places in the world explicitly outlaw encryption, others effectively outlaw it by forcing you to reveal passwords under threat of legal action. Hiding your usage of encryption may be useful.

Basic usage
The program has two modes of operation, firstly container file obfuscation, making a VC container look less like a VC container.

The first way it does this is by adding extra non-random bytes to the end of the container file. Any program designed to find encrypted files will be searching for files that consist of a random stream of bytes, so should skip over these modified files.

VeraCrypt / TrueCrypt container files have a file size that is a multiple of 512, so the extra bytes added will always make the file size not divisible by 512, further confusing any program designed to find these container files.

The program "TCHunt" on github can be used to verify these file modifications.

The second mode of operation takes advantage of the fact that VC hidden volumes start at position 65536 in the container file, so anything before this will be ignored when opening a hidden volume.

This allows a file such as a small pdf, or mp3, or in fact any file to fill this space, and when clicked on will open the pdf or mp3 etc as normal, but this dual purpose file can also be opened by VeraCrypt as a standard container.

Please read the in-program notes on decoy file types.

This program was tested in a variety of environments using containers created by VC 1.25.9 with no issues found, but it would still be wise to take a backup of your containers before using the program.
