I don't know much about that, but I can point you to something.
In Linux encrypted filesystems are created via a command like this:
losetup -T -e twofish256 /dev/loop2 big_file_to_be_mounted_as_loop
You can of course use a partition instead. The important thing is the -e
switch, and in the man page you can find some info, but not a howto.
You can provide an encryption key in a usb memory device and a password you
have to type: a method that gives double protections. There are, I think,
two howtos than explain some of these things; even if not complete, you
should read them.
However, if your company requires some certification, you will probably
have to go the sles way.
