Two Cents Crypto Frontend provides easy to use guided wizards to many of GNU/Linux Cryptography resources like Cryptsetup, GnuPG and so on.

Actually implemented

cryptsetup suite to create and manage devices and file storages protected by encryption
gpg suite for symmetric encryption of files and directory trees
gpg asymmetric encryption tools/key management/digital signing
Encrypted short message utilities
One Time Pad generation to securely exchange with contacts to have private conversations
Device and file secure deletion (wiping)


Dependencies :

cryptsetup (included with most of the distros)
gpg (gnupg included with most of the distros)
secure-delete (eg: sudo apt-get install secure-delete)

Optional :

git

The git way is clone https://github.com/LCyberspazio/TwoCent ... ontend.git

# git clone https://github.com/LCyberspazio/TwoCent ... ontend.git

Then cd to TwoCentsCryptoFrontend and launch tccf : ./tccf

A wizard starts.

I have tested the wizard with LXdd.

Alternative apps :
Zulucrypt-gui (in Debian repositories)
UsbCryptFormat : http://www.ubuntu-user.com/Magazine/Arc ... ryptFormat
VeraCrypt

Comment :
I encrypted a USB flash drive with UsbCryptFormat using a deb file. Very easy to use. It takes long to create the encrypted file system, then you can use your device on any OS with a password.

I try UsbCryptFormat but I have an: " error while writing partition table sfdisk!"
do you know what that is?
I can't go on because software ask me to give "ok or cancel": in both alternatives the program closes.
thx
