  • eCryptfs is a stacked cryptographic filesystem for Linux. It is derived from
    Erez Zadok's Cryptfs, implemented through the FiST framework for generating
    stacked filesystems. eCryptfs extends Cryptfs to provide advanced key
    management and policy features. eCryptfs stores cryptographic metadata in the
    header of each file written, so that encrypted files can be copied between
    hosts; the file will be decryptable with the proper key, and there is no need
    to keep track of any additional information aside from what is already in the
    encrypted file itself.
