TrueCrypt is safer than previously reported, detailed analysis concludes

The researchers said the vulnerabilities uncovered by Project Zero and in the Fraunhofer analysis should be fixed but that there's no indication that they can be exploited to provide attackers access to encrypted data stored on an unmounted hard drive or thumb drive.
The conclusion means that the millions of people who have relied on TrueCrypt will probably have a grace period to safely continue using the program until VeraCrypt or another TrueCrypt replacement is farther along in development.
So it is still safer than not using any encryption at all. If you want to keep some possibly embarrassing files, put them into a Truecrypt container instead of hoping that nobody will look into "C:\Users\Bob\Favorites\Links\Boring\PrinterSetup\".
