![]() ![]() SpiderOak () for stuff I want to make hard for someone to access, but not über sensitive (they're hosted in wrong country for that - sorry) They are offering 5 GB for free - which is quite nice already.ĭropbox () for all the crap I don't give a toss about (really that much anyway). ![]() Thanks for mentioning Wuala - It seems pretty good. Wuala's data centers are all located in Europe (Switzerland, Germany, France). ![]() Nobody - not even we as storage provider - can access your data without your authorization. Your password never leaves your computer. All data is encrypted locally, before it is uploaded. Wuala employs client-side-encryption to achieve a unique level of security. As the Swiss knife of cloud storage, it covers all the essential needs for professional and personal use: with Wuala, you can store your files securely online, share them with select others, access them from anywhere, setup automatic backups of your local data, or synchronize whole folders to the cloud.

You get 5Gb free storage, everything is encrypted on your machine a'la SpiderOak and they have client for various distros (Debian, Ubuntu and Derivatives & Fedora, Red Hat, CentOS & OpenSUSE + all others both 32 & 64 bit). I'm testing Wuala () (referral adds up to 10Gb) from LaCie at the moment. If you leave enough space on the USB flash drive (choose an appropriate size for the TrueCrypt container), you will also be able to store TrueCrypt on the USB flash drive (along with the container – not in the container) and you will be able to run TrueCrypt from the USB flash drive (see also the chapter Portable Mode in the TrueCrypt User Guide). Note: Windows does not support multiple partitions on USB flash drives.Ĭreate a TrueCrypt file container on the USB flash drive (for information on how to do so, see the chapter Beginner's Tutorial, in the TrueCrypt User Guide). However, you will not be able run TrueCrypt from the USB flash drive. How can I use TrueCrypt on a USB flash drive?Įncrypt the entire USB flash drive. If I'm encrypting a USB HDD, should I make a single large container, or choose to encrypt the entire drive? What is the difference? Also, if I have a 2TB HDD, can I make a container that large? I've considered TrueCrypt, do you use it? The license concerns me a little bit. I may try both just to be sure, but will probably have to stick to classic.įor cross platform work you could use Truecrypt or simply make encrypted Zip files.Įncrypted zips may not be perfect protection against a NSA laboratory attack, but it will protect against casual inspection. The newer BC version did thrash my files once. I'll sign up for the free space and try it out for a few months as well. Sounds like most people are impressed with it. But most of us here are not that average -) and Spideroak really isn't at all hard to work out. ![]() Dropbox is a little more easy for the average user than Spideroak. I wanted to test it for a few months before I commited. I have been using the free space for now. I use it on Windows 7, Fedora 20 and Android 4.2.2. My current backup solution is remembering to copy my files to an unencrypted external HDD about once a month, so I'd like to have something more like your setup in place. Of course, everything I have will be gone if my house burns down! :D My hope is - one day - when I enough money - to setup an automated backup to NAS. It is not automated - I back up once every week using a set of bash scripts. My current backup solution is on to two external HDD that are encrypted using LUKS-Cryptsetup. ![]()
