Complete on-the-fly encryption of snap drives?

Sifter · 09-09-2007, 05:19 PM

Is there any way to make sure data is completely safe on a snap 4000 or 2000? If the devices themselves were stolen, how is one to protect your data on it?

I encrypt all the drives on my computers with drivecrypt plus pack, and see no performance hit at all. At least my data will be secure if my desktop/laptop are ever stolen.

How can I guarantee the same for my snap servers? Id like something more than just "physical security".

I dont think you can...

Unless you can put something such as a truecrypt file or something on it...

I dont know if that'd work

Greetings, I am trying to go down this path however I am not aware of a TrueCrypt binaries available for GuardianOS (if there are PLEASE let me know). So I've been trying to figure out how to get gcc onto the snap and truthfully haven't gotten very far (started yesterday).

Any help would be appreciated.
