Hi folks,

I am not sure it is more secure. What are we trying to protect here? As long as the relay is running,it is unencrypted. Disk encryption only prevents physical access - are you at risk of this? At any rate, the relay shouldn't be storing personal data.

Having it encrypted also makes remote management an absolute pain.

Can someone clarify this?

Hey all,

I'm planning to customise a RPi with Raspbian already running, and using
cryptsetup (LUKS) to have a partition more secure for some reasons...
So the goal is to move some existing sensitive folders to this new
encrypted partition.
Some sym-links will be used for those directories.

About Tor, if I'm not wrong, those directories can be moved to this
encrypted partition :
/var/lib/tor : so I'm planning to move /var...

So at final, planning to move :
/home
/var
/tmp
(why not swap file ?)

Any suggestions and master's thoughts are welcome :)
