im working on some stuff for school, and a question about Unix encryption has popped up. I've already read about crypt and mcrypt commands, but what other types of encryption are currently offered for Unix?
I've read about some various pages regarding user based file system encryption. Does anyone have any experience with this? Are files/folders recoverable in the event of a hardware issue like Windows' recovery agents? I'm more interested in this aspect, and any available programs or libraries that are reliable and trusted among IT pros.
