Encrypted (at rest) hosts
From: Michael Harrison via chugalug ------------------------------------------------------ Am building a fresh Debian 13 SQL server at Linode/Akamai, seems all drives are now (by default) encrypted at rest... Helps with SOC2 compliance and such fun at least. I still consider such as "moderately" secure. But helps with that warm fuzzy feeling. --Mike--=============================================================== From: Dave Brockman via chugalug ------------------------------------------------------ If you don't enter a key at boot, that encryption is worthless.

=============================================================== From: Lynn Dixon via chugalug ------------------------------------------------------ Unless you are using a Tang / Clevis setup of course :) No key password needed on boot then.

=============================================================== From: r d flowers via chugalug ------------------------------------------------------ Thank you, Mike ! You signed this one. Messages to Chugalug show up -- just from the mailing list, not indicating the person ( at my inbox ) -- unless the sender thenself gives at least a tiny sig. An example is the mystery person who had a laptop to sell. Other chugalug messages show up from time to time giving not one scrap of information as to who sent it. -- R. D.

=============================================================== From: Lynn Dixon via chugalug ------------------------------------------------------ R.D., It looks like you are using Proton Mail. Its absolutely NOTORIOUS for stripping information from emails, more especially mailing list emails. I haven't had any of the issues you are mentioning with the list, and I'm using Gmail and Apple Mail. You might want to check that Proton isn't removing important info from your emails. g ce
