I am not adequate enough in encryption to offer any help but i would point in the direction of ibuclaw of our UBT. He has done encryption tutorials on the UF and he is the primary person i would turn to if i were in the situation in this area. I would join the irc to catch him or contact him directly via the UBT mailing list.
