Ubuntu 22.04 can decrypt and read a BitLocker-encrypted device/partition without a need of installing any additional software (older releases can as well, perhaps, but I have not seen it) How can a block device or a partition be checked as to whether it is encrypted using **BitLocker** in a similar way a LUKS-encrypted device/partition can be verified using: sudo cryptsetup isLuks /dev/sda1 echo $? and sudo cryptsetup luksDump /dev/sda1 I have tried watching the dmesg log, checking with lsblk, but none of them seem to indicate the encryption type. My question is specific to Ubuntu 22.04, but answers for other distros will be helpful and are very welcome.
