SUSE also provides filesystem encryption (LUKS is used in 10.3 - I don't remember what is used in older versions). I am using it since a couple of years on my laptop. I think it is useful to cover this, especially after all those security issues that happened in the past months (authorities and military in the US and Europe losing their laptops with secret data). Other thoughts?
