Linux uses dm-crypt in order to provide transparent disk or partition encryption. What are the options in case you need to recover passphrase from such encryption? There are already ready-made tools, but we have also produced and published our own in order to support newer LUKS format/ciphers/hashing.
dm-crypt is a transparent disk encryption subsystem in the Linux kernel. It is implemented as a device mapper target and may be stacked on top of other device mapper transformations. It can thus encrypt whole disks (including removable media), partitions, software RAID volumes, logical volumes, as well as files. It appears as a block device, which can be used to back file systems, swap or as an LVM physical volume.
There are many formats or types which dm-crypt/cryptsetup support (current version supports luks, luks1, luks2, plain, loopaes, tcrypt), but the most commons ones are LUKS1 and LUKS2, where LUKS2 is an obviously newer format, which uses argon2i by default. It is a less known fact that cryptsetup s
