Not even FBI was able to decrypt files of Daniel Dantas

“According to the report, the fed only requested help from USA
in early 2009, after experts from the National Institute of
Criminology (INC) failed to decode the passwords on the hard
drives. The government has no legal instrument to compel the
manufacturer of the American encryption system or Dantas to give
the access codes.

“The equipment will remain under the protection of the feds. INC

programs used in the equipment are available online. One is called
Truecrypt and is free. The programs were used due to suspected
espionage.”
