git-annex? I know there's a Windows port but I've never set it up, and I've 
used it before successfully on android. Everything is encrypted on the backends 
using gpg and setup is pretty easy.

I believe truecrypt has some CVEs filed against it this year.

VeraCrypt is fork which continue the TrueCrypt legacy,
TrueCrypt had some audit (crowd source founded) on the encryption part
(algorithm and stuff), the boot loader,  and the windows kernel driver
(IIRC).

they found few  vulnerabilities at first (3 I think), but nothing critical,
and they were patched in VeraCrypt.

next was a bug in the windows driver which allowed a user/process to gain
SYSTEM privileges.
which also was patched.

however it is unmaintained (should i use veracrypt ? no audit done on it,)
and i do not need all this functionality

what i liked about ecryptfs is that it is the default ubuntu encryption
(which raise my trust in it), and that it encrypts file by file rather than
volume (which better fits to running it over dropbox or gdrive)

Note that they have a freemium business model. The free version should be
good enough for simple stuff.

portable encypted filesystem

2015-11-17 Thread Erez D
Hello

It is very nice to hold some data on the cloud accessible from everywhere
however if i do not want the cloud to have access to it, it requires
encryption

i could mount gdrive, dropbox or other cloud fs localy
and mount ecryptfs on it so i have transparent encryption

my only problem is that it works on linux only

does anyone knows a way of having a portable transparent encryption
which will support linux, and windows ?
(would be nice if it will also support android (even if  i can not insmod)
and ios)
