Is it Hasta la Vista for True Crypt?

1.    The popular encryption software TRUE CRYPT (...actually my personal favourite for long now) site has been showing some surprising front page news as we reach the original address at www.truecrypt.org/ as seen below :

2.     I wonder why for any reason a open-source established software like TRUE CRYPT would start recommending Bitlocker ex Windows 7?....is it case of a simple web page hack or is it for real?....lets wait and watch for now...

Snake oil Cryptography

1.     While reading a post about unhackable codes here , I came across a interesting term know as SNAKE OIL CRYPTOGRAPHY......as Alex Gostev, chief security expert at Kaspersky Labs, dismissed ENIGMA-DS "snake-oil cryptography,"....so found out in brief from wiki...where else!!!

In cryptography, snake oil is a term used to describe commercial cryptographic methods and products which are considered bogus or fraudulent. The name derives from snake oil, one type of quack medicine widely available in 19th century United States.Distinguishing secure cryptography from insecure cryptography can be difficult from the viewpoint of a user.
