@Em0nM4stodon I've installed #CryptPad, and #Nextcloud, #immich as well as other services on #encrypted #ZFS on my #linux server. Nextcloud was a bit of a pain, CryptPad was painless, Immich, yeah kind of a real pain. But if you want help getting off of BigTech and supplying your own services, controlled by you, encrypted by you, #AMA.

3.) For those who aren't using #encrypted #CloudStorage, #Veracrypt is an easy way to create an encrypted container you could then upload to the cloud.

4.) For added security, even on an already encrypted system drive, you can place personal documents inside of a Veracrypt container you've created that can otherwise be inaccessible. Useful for an added layer of #security or on shared workstations depending on scenario.

Some things to note and some use cases for #Veracrypt:

1.) #LUKS provides a way to #encrypt #linux drives. Veracrypt is not the answer for your system drive, but additional drives can be fully #encrypted and mounted using it.

2.) #PlausibleDeniability is what #HiddenContainers offer by having one #password that opens the outer container where you can store files, with a secondary container accessible with a different password.

For those who aren't yet aware of this application that's #CrossPlatform, easy to use, has a helpful #FAQ guide if need be, i'll briefly describe #Veracrypt

With Veracrypt you can create #encrypted containers, hidden secondary containers within encrypted containers, #encrypt drives and it also offers an alternative to #Bitlocker if desired if running a #Windows OS that is NOT a #DualBoot scenario

For context this is what the whole #Boston #MeshCore map looks like right now.

The bulk of all traffic is concentrated around the area of #NoKings downtown.

The #mesh is certainly doing its job right now.

Community run, #decentralized, #encrypted, open-access #infrastructure at work.
