Strengths: Very easy to install. Just follow the steps (click Next Einsteins).
Weaknesses: No weaknesses so far. Its doing what it claims.
Overall Evaluation: The level of encryption is great. It has a setting where you combine 3 differents encryptions AES-Twofish-Serpent, Who's going to crack that? Plus, you can use a keyfile that works along the password. Even if somebody steals the password, they can't get in without the file. I made a vault 50 gb big, to put in ALL my files. You can make hidden vaults that NOBODY can find without you revealing them. READ THE MANUAL.
