What would be interesting would be if the encryption software were set up
to erase the encrypted drive after 3 invalid passwords and the defendant
intentionally entered the wrong password 3 times. . .

====================

and the prosecution provides another mirrored copy of the original drive.
that trick will get old, really fast.



What effect does encryption being tied to a TPM chip or a hard disk
with built-in encryption have on forensics imaging or cloning?
