minus-squareNegativeLookBehind@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·2 个月前LUKS VPN Encrypt sensitive files
minus-squarePossibly linux@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·2 个月前That only works if the decryption is happening on hardware you control. You can not trust any part of the VPS including the memory and CPU
minus-squareboredsquirrel@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·2 个月前So how do you decrypt the LUKS vault when you have no sshd running as that thing is not up yet?
minus-squarefuzzy_feeling@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·2 个月前you can but an ssh server in your initramfs. dropbear-initramfs i guess was the name in debian.
minus-squareboredsquirrel@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·edit-22 个月前Pretty cool! Android and ChromeOS both also just use fuse for userspace (and user-files) encryption. This could totally be used too. But of course, if something is not on your RAM it is not safe
minus-squareNegativeLookBehind@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 个月前Do VPSs typical give you LOM? Honest question. Maybe LUKs isn’t good if you can’t console in.
minus-squareZikeji@programming.devlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·2 个月前LUKS, or anything that relies on the server encrypting, is highly vulnerable (see [email protected]’s response). Your best bet would be encrypting client side before it arrives on the server using a solution like rclone, restic, borg, etc.
minus-squareboredsquirrel@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 个月前Yes. No proof their LUKS prompt isnt tampered with
minus-squarelud@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 个月前Yeah, at least the ones I used have some kind of console/terminal you can use and often you can access BIOS and reinstall the OS if you want.
minus-squareJubilantJaguar@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 个月前Another option: encrypt a sparse file rather than a disk volume. Mount the file to local filesystem and open and close it there.
