Hello,
Veracrypt and Truecrypt user guides discuss valid concerns that an encrypted file container could easily be compromised if stored on an SSD (or any drive using wear leveling, TRIM or the like). If I understand the concerns correctly, the problem is caused mainly by copies of the volume header spread over many sectors.
Here is my questions. Is anybody aware of any sort of protection which is easy to implement - without going back to slow magnetic drives ?
(So far I am not willing to carry my laptop wherever I go with a external HDD (magnetic drive) hanging down from a cable. Is there any other solution ?
