We just built a new system that uses dm-crypt to encrypt the backup data
partition.  We store the encryption key on a cd-rom plugged into the
system.  We rotate the drives out of the system for offsite backups. By
keeping the key on a cdrom we ensure that the unencrypted key is not
carried with the backup data on the drives.
