Description

Elcomsoft Forensic Disk Decryptor

Instantly access data stored in encrypted BitLocker, FileVault 2, PGP Disk, TrueCrypt and VeraCrypt disks and containers. The tool extracts cryptographic keys from RAM captures, hibernation and page files or uses plain-text password or escrow keys to decrypt files and folders stored in crypto containers or mount encrypted volumes as new drive letters for instant, real-time access.

Extract encryption metadata from TrueCrypt, VeraCrypt, BitLocker, FileVault, PGP Disk, and LUKS/LUKS2 encrypted disks, Jetico BestCrypt disks and containers

Supports: BitLocker (including TPM configurations), FileVault 2 (including APFS volumes), LUKS, PGP Disk, TrueCrypt and VeraCrypt encrypted containers and full disk encryption, BitLocker To Go, XTS-AES BitLocker encryption, Jetico BestCrypt, RAM dumps, hibernation files, page files

Specifying Encryption and Hashing Algorithms for TrueCrypt/VeraCrypt

TrueCrypt and VeraCrypt allow users to change the encryption algorithm as well as the hash function used to generate the encryption key from the password. This information is never stored anywhere in the encrypted container. Should the expert specify the wrong algorithm, the attempt to recover the password will fail even if the correct password is tried. In this release, we’ve added the ability to specify algorithms for brute-forcing passwords when capturing encryption metadata from TrueCrypt/VeraCrypt volumes.

LUKS2 Encryption

We added support for LUKS2 encryption. The tool can extract LUKS2 metadata from encrypted disks and containers.

A Fully Integrated Solution for Accessing Encrypted Volumes

Elcomsoft Forensic Disk Decryptor offers a range of methods for gaining access to information stored in encrypted BitLocker, FileVault 2, LUKS, LUKS2, PGP Disk, TrueCrypt and VeraCrypt disks and volumes, and Jetico BestCrypt 9 containers. The toolkit allows using the volume’s plain-text password, escrow or recovery keys, as well as the binary keys extracted from the computer’s memory image or hibernation file. FileVault 2 recovery keys can be extracted from iCloud with Elcomsoft Phone Breaker, while BitLocker recovery keys are available in Active Directory or in the user’s Microsoft Account.

If neither the encryption key nor the recovery key can be extracted, EFDD can extract meta data from the encrypted container to let Elcomsoft Distributed Password Recovery do its job.

Elcomsoft Forensic Disk Decryptor Extract Encryption Metadata

Extracting encryption metadata from the encrypted disk is required if you need access to the original plaintext password to access the data. Forensic Disk Decryptor will instantly extract the encryption metadata from encrypted hard drives, crypto-containers and forensic disk images protected with TrueCrypt, VeraCrypt, BitLocker, FileVault, PGP Disk, LUKS/LUKS2, and Jetico BestCrypt disks and containers. The resulting small file contains everything that’s required to launch a GPU-accelerated distributed attack with Elcomsoft Distributed Password Recovery.

Full Decryption, Instant Mount or Attack

With fully automatic detection of encrypted volumes and encryption settings, experts will only need to provide path to the encrypted container or disk image. Elcomsoft Forensic Disk Decryptor will automatically search for, identify and display encrypted volumes and details of their corresponding encryption settings.

Access is provided by either decrypting the entire content of an encrypted volume or by mounting the volume as a drive letter in unlocked, unencrypted mode. Both operations can be done with volumes as attached disks (physical or logical) or raw images; for FileVault 2, PGP Disk and BitLocker, decryption and mounting can be performed using recovery key (if available).

Full Decryption

Elcomsoft Forensic Disk Decryptor can automatically decrypt the entire content of the encrypted container, providing investigators with full, unrestricted access to all information stored on encrypted volumes

Real-Time Access to Encrypted Information

In the real-time mode, Elcomsoft Forensic Disk Decryptor mounts the encrypted volume as a new drive letter on the investigator’s PC. In this mode, forensic specialists enjoy fast, real-time access to protected information. Information read from mounted disks and volumes is decrypted on-the-fly in real time.

No Decryption Key and No Recovery Key?

If neither the decryption key nor the recovery key is available, Elcomsoft Forensic Disk Decryptor will extract metadata necessary to brute-force the password with Elcomsoft Distributed Password Recovery.

Elcomsoft Distributed Password Recovery can attack plain-text passwords protecting the encrypted containers with a range of advanced attacks including dictionary, mask and permutation attacks in addition to brute-force.
