[LUG] Identifying encrypted files.

 

I was just playing with some maths stuff and playing with some white noise files. I thought I'd look at an encrypted file just to see if there were any clues to its contents. Not that I could see.. Is it possible to tell if a file is just random or encrypted - without the key.
You can get locked up for having a file of white noise!!
