Does password change invalidate header backups? #79

Closed ghost closed 11 months ago

ghost commented 1 year ago

If threat actor acquires original/initial disk header backups and password, is it enough to change just the password to invalidate original/initial header backups? Or is it necessary to re-encrypt disks with new password?
