About zuluCrypt
zuluCrypt is a feature-rich tool for hard drive encryption on Linux. It acts as a front end to cryptsetup and tcplay, making it easy to create, open, and manage encrypted block devices from either a Qt graphical app or a command-line interface.
It handles a wide range of formats, including PLAIN dm-crypt, LUKS, TrueCrypt, VeraCrypt, and Microsoft BitLocker volumes. Those volumes can live in image files, on LVM, mdraid, hard drives, USB sticks, or any other block device, and zuluCrypt can also encrypt stand-alone files.
The bundled zuluMount tool mounts and unmounts both encrypted and plain volumes, and its GUI can also front EncFS, gocryptfs, securefs, eCryptfs, and CryFS, working independently of any specific desktop environment or file manager.
