truecrypt ,can i use more then 1 keyfile to create a container?

hi

can i create a container using more then 1 generated keyfile?

for example , create a container using 4 generated keyfiles?


should be more safe hypothetically,seeing one generated keyfile is enough

thanks
cheers

 

yes you can I use 2 generated key files for my true crypt archives.

I would think 4 would be possible.

 

more secure ?

but it's more strong ,isn't it ?
i mean use more then 1 keyfile?

in the guide there is nothing

cheers

 

Re: more secure ?

yes it is , i use 3 key files and one *.avi to increase protection , you should read about it in truetcrypt DOC how to use key files

 

Make sure you back up your keyfiles, otherwise if any of them change you can be permanently locked out.

 

but

but

if the max is 64bytes , is there a sense to use more keys files ?

i mean i can use 4 generated key files , but tc will use always 64bytes

thanks

 

Re: but

The only security in using more than one key file is that an attacker would have to Know your password and get access to each (and all) key files. Unless you are storing them in separate devices I would just use one.
