13 .SH DESCRIPTION

14 Dislocker has been designed to read BitLocker encrypted partitions under

15 a Linux system. The driver used to read volumes encrypted in Windows system

16 versions of the Vista to 10 and BitLocker-To-Go encrypted partitions,that's

17 USB/FAT32 partitions.

18 .PP

19 The software works with driver composed of a library, with multiple binaries

20 using this library. Decrypting the partition, you have to give it a mount

21 point where, once keys are decrypted, a file named dislocker-file appears.

22 This file is a virtual NTFS partition, so you can mount it as any NTFS

23 partition and then read from or write to it. Writing to the NTFS virtual

24 file will change the underlying BitLocker partition content.

25 .PP

26 This tool is useful in cryptography managing and forensics investigations.
