If you had to say which is more powerful would be cryptsetup/detached header of veracrypt you using?
Discussion
Here it is necessary to differentiate between utility and safety.
Veracrypt is military security but will be tedious for many things, cryptsetup will be better for the operating system in general.
You simply use Veracrypt volumes for the most critical things.
Need to try Veracrypt. It works on Tails I think. I liked the concept of detached header thing but it also complicates things quite a bit. I want to make encrypted essential back up of most important stuff and put that encrypted volume on cloud storage so I can access it if I have to leave my spot with nothing on me.
Shot you a dm if that is ok.
