Fedora plans to provide more encryption by default |
 |
Owen Taylor has posted an overview of work going into Fedora's Workstation edition which will improve data encryption and device security. In particular Taylor is looking at making home directory and system encryption default settings at install time. "For quite a while, the Workstation Working Group has had open tickets to improve the state of encryption in Fedora - and in particular get to the point where we can make the installer encrypt systems by default. In order to move that forward, I’ve been working on a requirements document and draft plan. In very brief summary, the plan is:
Use the upcoming Btrfs fscrypt support to encrypt both the system and home directories. The system by default will be encrypted with an encryption key stored in the TPM and bound to the signatures used to sign the bootloader/kernel/initrd, providing protection against tampering, while home directories will be encrypted using the user's login password." Details are provided in Taylor's mailing list post. |
