[EN] What would you recommend to crypt 1TB Cloud Storrage?
« on: 2019/11/12, 18:31:08 »
I would like to use Microsofts onedrive cloud. If I understand right, lnsync is supporting now onedrive. I haven't tried it for a long time, since they installed a ubuntu repository years ago on my siduction. Now it seems they have a own debian repository.
Nevertheless I would like to crypt the entire folder. What would yo recommend. Encfs seems a bit outdated. And I am not sure if it could handle up to 1TB.What would you recommend?

I don't know your requirements, but did you ever take a look at the debian package called onedrive?  See https://packages.debian.org/sid/onedrive  and  https://github.com/abraunegg/onedrive/blob/master/docs/USAGE.md

Thanks Bud,looks good.
I already have seen it, but I really need to test it, to see if it starts automatically and runs smooth in the background.

@Lanzi, you wrote "folder" so probably this:

If you wrote "partition" or "container", then I would say "zulucrypt".

@Lanzi, you know it is not necessary to encrypt a real partition with luks/zulucrypt?  You can make a BIG encrypted file -- I have one 10 GB, and that becomes your "container" for data that must be protected.  You can organize it just like a folder, with sub-folders and sub-sub-folders, etc.  I have dozens of folders and hundreds of files in mine.

Thanks Titan - i will read about it.

@DiblWhat tool do you use for that big file? Also Zulucrypt?

Yes, zulucrypt.  With zulucrypt running, choose "Create" > "Encrypted container in a new file" and then tell it file name, how large, where to save, etc.

You could probably also use Veracrypt, available as a *.deb download. However, I have concerns about possible interception of keys and/or passwords when decrypting any online container created with Veracypt, Zulucrypt, or similar apps.

I currently use GPG (Kleopatra as a frontend) to encrypt all of my files before storing them online. Not all of my files are sensitive, but I encrypt them anyway to prevent the files from being tampered with.
