Fully automatic full hard disk encryption on TUXEDO Computer devices

Linux Spezialist: Festplattenvollverschlüsselung

Augsburg (Germany), 25th of March. In the last few weeks, many companies in particular have sent their employees to the home office for security reasons. Since this situation has occurred very unplanned, the main focus has been on speed, but perhaps not always on security on the part of the companies. Here TUXEDO Computers offers the possibility that the employees can work safely from home.

Proven cryptography technology on TUXEDO computer devices

TUXEDO Computers also provides devices with a high security standard for times when employees of the children work in the home office or are on the road a lot because of more work: A fully automatic hard disk encryption.

Customers have the choice of receiving the encryption ex works or setting it up later via WebFAI. TUXEDO Computers uses LUKS-LVM ("Linux Unified Key Setup" and "Logical Volume Manager"). The volumes are divided into two parts: a minimal unencrypted partition with boot information and the remaining part as a so-called Logical Volume Manager. The latter is a kind of container that contains the common partitions for root, swap, etc. Exactly this container and all its contained data are encrypted with LUKS.

Automated concept

To be able to set up the concept as automated and comfortable as possible, TUXEDO Computers stores a default password at the first start, which is only valid during the initial setup and is deleted afterwards. If customers have requested encryption ex works when ordering, the system is already installed and prepared.

Everything else about full hard disk encryption ex works and via WebFAI independently from home can be found in the appropriate manual with screenshots, which can be downloaded and printed out.
