: to a 448 bit key. However, all characters supplied are significant. The
: stronger your passphrase, the more secure your data.

: In addition to encrypting your data, bcrypt will by default overwrite the
: original input file with random garbage three times before deleting it in
: order to thwart data recovery attempts by persons who may gain access to
: your computer. Bcrypt uses the blowfish encryption algorithm published by
: Bruce Schneier in 1993.
