gocryptfs

Encrypted overlay filesystem written in Go. More information: https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs.

  • Initialize an encrypted filesystem:

gocryptfs -init path/to/cipher_dir

  • Mount an encrypted filesystem:

gocryptfs path/to/cipher_dir path/to/mount_point

  • Mount with the explicit master key instead of password:

gocryptfs --masterkey path/to/cipher_dir path/to/mount_point

  • Change the password:

gocryptfs --passwd path/to/cipher_dir

  • Make an encrypted snapshot of a plain directory:

gocryptfs --reverse path/to/plain_dir path/to/cipher_dir
