BitLocker!!#$?! What all downloads are available...

BitLocker Drive Preparation Tool: Windows BitLocker Drive Encryption is a feature that encrypts one or more volumes (drives) attached to your computer and that can use a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) to verify the integrity of early startup components. Because BitLocker encrypts the entire volume of data, it requires the computer to be configured with an active partition, used for startup, which is separate from the operating system volume. This is called a “split-load configuration.” User data is stored on either the operating system volume or additional data volumes, which can also be encrypted by using BitLocker.

BitLocker Recovery Password Viewer for Active Directory Users and Computers tool: The BitLocker Active Directory Recovery Password Viewer helps to locate BitLocker Drive Encryption recovery passwords for Windows Vista- or Windows Server 2008- based computers in Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS).

BitLocker Repair Tool: This tool helps access data encrypted with BitLocker if the hard disk has been physically damaged. This tool attempts to reconstruct critical data from the drive and salvage any recoverable data. To decrypt the data, a recovery password or recovery key is required. In some cases, a backup of the key package is also required. Use this command-line tool if the following conditions are true:

  • A volume has been encrypted by using BitLocker Drive Encryption.
  • Windows does not start, or you cannot start the BitLocker recovery console.
  • You do not have a copy of the data that is contained on the encrypted volume.

BitLocker Drive Encryption Algorithm: The BitLocker Drive Encryption feature of Windows Vista poses an interesting set of security and performance requirements on the encryption algorithm used for the disk data. We discuss why no existing cipher satisfies the requirements of this application and document our solution which consists of using AES in CBC mode with a dedicated diffuser to improve the security against manipulation attacks.

Windows BitLocker Drive Encryption Design and Deployment Guides: The Windows BitLocker Design and Deployment guides describe the various aspects of planning for deploying Windows BitLocker Drive Encryption for Windows Vista® Enterprise and Windows Vista Ultimate computers in an enterprise environment. The document is organized in two guides, and you should carefully consider each guide before you deploy BitLocker Drive Encryption.
