In the US you generally don't need to hide encryption. The 5th Amendment usually protects any key stashed in your head.
There's been an exception so far in a case where a guy allowed police browsing, they found kiddie porn or so they say, the system got shut off, and he wouldn't let them back in by divulging his key. A circuit court said he had to give it up. Lesson: DO NOT let US police search your stuff. You can't then revoke that permission reliably. I do "in your face" whole disk encryption. Other countries including Britain and Canada differ, and that's where hidden encryption matters - or any situation where "rubber hose decryption" is even barely possible!!!
