Description
Cracks passwords of LUKS encrypted volumes
Long description
The program tries to decrypt at least one of the key slots by trying all the possible passwords. It is especially useful if you know something about the password (i.e. you forgot a part of your password but still remember most of it). Finding the password of a volume without knowing anything about it would take way too much time (unless the password is really short and/or weak). It can also use a dictionary.
