Encrypted data not secure
Monday, February 25th, 2008
Do you believe that your data is secure only because you have encrypted you harddrive?
Please visit http://citp.princeton.edu/memory/ to see your data is not really secure and that everybody has access to your files if he/she has direct access to your notebook or computer.
While your computer is running the key is stored in the memory and the attacker can backup the data from the memory to a external usb harddrive (ram2usb). The status running is even if your user is logged out of the windows but you entered the encryption key before.
