An HC file is an encrypted virtual disk created by IDRIX VeraCrypt, a volume creation and encryption program. It contains one or more encrypted files that can be opened only after mounting the HC file in VeraCrypt. To mount an HC file, you must know the password used to create it.
Maggiori informazioni
VeraCrypt is a free, open-source program that allows you to create and encrypt storage volumes. You can use VeraCrypt to encrypt existing physical volumes, such as hard drives or USB flash drives, or create and encrypt new virtual volumes. Virtual volumes created using VeraCrypt are saved as HC files. (Users manually add the .hc extension to their volume's filename while creating it.)
When you create an HC file, you specify the volume's size (in KB, MB, or GB) and the password used to protect it. You can also adjust other options, such as the encryption and hash algorithms used to encrypt the volume. To create a new HC file, open VeraCrypt, select , and use the Volume Creation Wizard to create an encrypted file container.
NOTA: VeraCrypt is the successor to TrueCrypt, a previous encryption tool for desktop PCs.
