From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Jay Sullivan Subject: Encryption in btrfs Date: Tue, 18 May 2010 14:54:35 -0400 Message-ID: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 To: linux-btrfs@vger.kernel.org Return-path: List-ID: Hi, In the past, I've heard rumors that there are plans to support [transparent] encryption in btrfs. =C2=A0If you guys were able to get compression to work already, I don't see what's stopping you from implementing encryption. =C2=A0I'd like to strongly recommend that you = look into using=C2=A0the "NaCl: Networking and Cryptography library" (see http://nacl.cace-project.eu/ =C2=A0) by Daniel J. Bernstein. It is extremely lightweight, fast, secure, and has an extremely simple API. I'd really like to see btrfs take advantage of such a great cryptographic library. I'm interested in hearing all of your thoughts on this, as I think it could work out quite nicely.
