*Plausible deniability*: in some cases (for example, with *VeraCrypt* hidden volumes), it is impossible for an adversary to technically prove the existence of an encrypted volume.
*Plausible Bestreitbarkeit*: In einigen Fällen (z. B. bei <span class="application">VeraCrypt</span> versteckten Datenträgern) ist es für einen Gegner unmöglich, die Existenz eines verschlüsselten Datenträgers technisch zu beweisen.

Still, [[!wikipedia Deniable_encryption desc="deniable encryption"]] might not protect you if
you are forced to reveal the existence of the encrypted volume. See
[VeraCrypt: Plausible Deniability](https://www.veracrypt.fr/en/Plausible%20Deniability.html).
