Description: configures encrypted block devices
Since kernel 2.6.4, encrypted filesystem support is provided by the device
mapper target dm-crypt. This utility provides a command-line interface for
configuring this facility.
.
cryptsetup is backwards compatible with the on-disk format of cryptoloop,
but also supports more secure formats. This package also includes support
for automatically configuring encrypted devices at boot time via the config
file /etc/crypttab. When combined with newer versions of the debian
initrd-tools and standard debian kernels, cryptoroot is also supported.
.
