 It provides the following features:
 
 * Utilizes the man:crypto[9] framework and automatically uses cryptographic hardware when it is available.
-* Supports multiple cryptographic algorithms such as AES-XTS, AES-CBC, and Camellia-CBCAES.
+* Supports multiple cryptographic algorithms such as AES-XTS, AES-CBC, and Camellia-CBC.
 * Allows the root partition to be encrypted. The passphrase used to access the encrypted root partition will be requested during system boot.
 * Allows the use of two independent keys.
 * It is fast as it performs simple sector-to-sector encryption.
