I am encrypting a volume with TrueCrypt. I have decided to use AES
as the encryption algorithm, seeing as it is the government standard.
But which hash algorithm is better (more secure)? RIPEMD-160
or SHA-512
or Whirlpool
?
I am using Mac.
I believe that SHA-512 is the most secure, as the government uses that, the latter is my personal opinion. – Mythrillic – 2012-01-28T09:21:16.133
