encryption manager > SiriKali set default

I'm not very familiar with the program in the Porteus control center yet, nor have I tried it thoroughly.
At first glance, I fell in love with SiriKali (DOWNLOAD > convert to module):
it's in the repositories
//packages > slapt-mod -u > slapt-mod -m encfs
it's multi-distribution
it integrates perfectly with the desktop
it's super simple and intuitive.
I also found another option, VeraCrypt, which has a fabulous app image, although I haven't tried it yet.
//OPINIONS AND SUGGESTIONS based on your experience
I have some questions
:
> Can these programs fail, with or without a GUI... or are they bulletproof?
> Have you lost data due to these types of programs?
That is, the data is there but unreadable, and you can't recover a proper configuration to mount the volume.
