Userspace Filesystem Encryption with EncFS (O'ReillyNet)
[Posted April 15, 2005 by ris]
O'ReillyNet has this article on
protecting
data with an encrypted file system. "
For a long time now,
computer-related theft has been a real problem. The most likely victims of
these thefts are laptops and USB sticks, which are obviously very easy to
lift (and leave with). Desktop computers and backup media are stolen less
frequently. In all of these cases, much of the time, the data stored in the
media is more valuable than both the computer and the media. An important
question is how to protect valuable data in our computer's storage
areas."
