Zijn we weer
Heb eea geprobeerd en het lukt niet waarbij ik direct bij zeg dat ik de zwakste schakel ben dus ga er maar vanuit dat ik iets fout doe en dat het niet aan het programma ligt.
Ik zag wel een bestandje langs komen van de zip files dat het gemaakt was voor dit os ..
Het zij zo ik heb het opgegeven en zoals eerder gemeld kwam ik sirikali tegen.
De maker van dit product schrijft er het volgende over nadat ik contact heb gehad omdat hij ook de maker was van zulucrypt
Ik sluit de tekst bij zodat ieder zelf kan (be)(ver)oordelen.
Heb net met Luks een usb gedaan, maar volgens mij kan je niet mappen beveiligen / encrypten wat je wel kan met de andere 2 programmas en soms is dat gewoon makkelijker.
Maar nogmaals ik kom ook nog maar net kijken mbt linux dus moet nog veel proberen en ondervinden.
https://mhogomchungu.github.io/zuluCrypt/"A bit of a story, a few years ago around 2008, i bought an external hard drive and i wanted to encrypt it just because i could. I knew about TrueCrypt but i did not want to use it because i saw it as a Windows solution and i wanted a native linux solution.
A native linux solution is cryptsetup[2] but it is a CLI tools and it only works from the root's terminal. Accessing it from the root's terminal got old pretty fast and i decided to create a GUI tool and zuluCrypt came out of it.
In summary, zuluCrypt is a GUI front end to cryptsetup and tcplay and both of these tools deals with block device encryption. If you have a hard drive and you want to encrypt the whole of it or the whole partition then block device encryption is a better alternative.
About two years ago, somebody asked me to support folder based encryption in zuluCrypt and i decided to fork a component of zuluCrypt called zuluMount and create a separate project called SiriKali and add the support there.
SiriKali is a GUI front end to a bunch of solutions that deals with folder based encryption and a list of supported frontends is found in the project's main page here[3].
There are use cases that gives folder based encryption an advantage over block device based encryption and there are usecases that gives block device based encryption an advantage over folder based encryption.
The biggest advantage block device encryption has is that the whole device or partition is encrypted and hence use patterns of the drive is completely hidden while its locked. The bad thing about it is that you have to commit the whole drive or partition and most of the space will go wasted if encrypted data takes a small part of the total size.
The biggest advantage folder based encryption has it the the encrypted folder grows and shrinks like a normal folder and its size reflect actual use pattern of the encrypted folder so there is no wasted space. To be most accurate, there is a bit of wasted space that goes to the management of the volume.The bad thing about folder based encryption is that a bit of the use pattern of the volume is visible from the outside.
These days, i prefer folder based encryption because of their better use of the disk space. WIth block device based encryption, i was using encrypted container files created in my home directory and i got tired of creating and managing multiple 100GB files!!
