An Analysis of Apple's FileVault 2
This is an analysis of Apple’s disk encryption program, FileVault 2, that first appeared in the Lion operating system. Short summary: they couldn’t break it. (Presumably, the version in Mountain Lion isn’t any different.)

AFAIK all users on a Mac have access to the whole disk after login, within the limits of Unix access rights. Doesn’t this limit the protection offered by FV2 to the quality of the weakest user password?
