So repeat the above procedure but this time round Once the outer volume is created, you need to create the hidden volume within it. To create the outer volume in non-interactive mode, run the command below # veracrypt -t -c -volume-type=normal /dev/sdb1 -encryption=aes -hash=sha-512 -filesystem=ext4 -p -pim=0 -k "" -random-source=/dev/urandom Create a hidden volume within the outer volume The VeraCrypt volume has been successfully created. Please type at least 320 randomly chosen characters and then press Enter: In this case, you are required to enter at least 320 random numbers. Next, type random numbers that can be use to improve the cryptographic strength of the encryption key. Re-enter password: Re-Enter STRONGPASSWORD For PIM and keyfile path, press enter to set empty values.
HOW TO USE VERACRYPT TO ENCRYPT NON SYSTEM DRIVE PASSWORD
Next, you need to set the password for encrypting outer volume. In this case, we are going with Linux Ext4. You can also just press enter to accept the defaults.ĭefine the filesystem to format the volume with. In the above, we chose the AES and SHA 512 as encryption and hashing algorithms respectively. Next, define the Encryption as well as the hashing algorithms Encryption Algorithm: In this case, we are going to setup a Normal volume.
When you run the command, you are prompted to choose the type of volume. Most of the options will be requested if you don’t specify them on the command line and thus the setup becomes interactive. Launch veracrypt command from the terminal and pass option -c/–create and of course the -t/–text option. To create a hidden VeraCrypt volume, step through the following procedure. To learn more about VeraCrypt command line options, run veracrypt -h Use VeraCrypt on Command Line to Encrypt Drives Create a Hidden VeraCrypt Volume
