However, I can encrypt the filesytem natively using SUSE methods. What I need to know is what level of encryption is this? Do any of you know what that is? I've googled and cannot find anything.
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. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
