+#### dcfldd - enhanced version of dd for forensics and security
+
+## Help this project ##
+
+dcfldd needs your help. **If you are a programmer** and if you wants to help a
+nice project, this is your opportunity.
+
+dcfldd was imported from some tarballs (the original homepage[1] and
+developers are inactive). After this, all patches found in Debian project and
+other places for this program were applied. All initial work was registered in
+ChangeLog file (version 1.5 and later releases). dcfldd is being packaged in
+Debian[2] Project.
+
+If you are interested to help dcfldd, read the [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md) file.

+
+## What is dcfldd? ##
+
+dcfldd is a modified version of GNU dd. The major features added are:
+
+  - Hashing on-the-fly: dcfldd can hash the input data as it is being
+    transferred, helping to ensure data integrity.
+  - Status output: dcfldd can update the user of its progress in terms of the
+    amount of data transferred and how much longer operation will take.
+  - Flexible disk wipes: dcfldd can be used to wipe disks quickly and with a
+    known pattern if desired.
+  - Image/wipe verify: dcfldd can verify that a target drive is a bit-for-bit
+    match of the specified input file or pattern.
+  - Multiple outputs: dcfldd can output to multiple files or disks at the same
+    time.
+  - Split output: dcfldd can split output to multiple files with more
+    configurability than the split command.
+  - Piped output and logs: dcfldd can send all its log data and output to
+    commands as well as files natively.
+
+dcfldd was originally created by Nicholas Harbour from the DoD Computer
+Forensics Laboratory (DCFL). Nick Harbour still maintaining the package,
+although he was no longer affiliated with the DCFL.
+
+Nowadays, dcfldd is maintained by volunteers.
