[Solved] System imaging software that encrypts the back up file?

I currently use macrium reflect free edition, but to gain what I potentially want I would be willing to pay for a solution.

Currently I do not have my OS drive encrypted...but at some point, I may very well move to that. When and if I do, my main concern would be making a image/backup while it is in its unencrypted state.....and the back up file itself would more than likely have to be unencrypted for the software to properly do a back up.

I typically back up to my second HDD so I suppose a work around would be to encrypt the backup file with Truecrypt, then if the OS drive fails boot with Tails and use TC to unencrypt the file and then proceed with the normal restore procedure.

Ideally....I'd like to find a imaging product that can make a backup/image of my OS, store the file encrypted and be able to decrypt/restore the image all on its own. Does such a product exist?

Well, I guess if I looked at the feature list of macrium 5.0 I would have noticed it supports encrypting with AES. Thanks anways.
