Subject: [dm-crypt] Possibility for safe Luks partition delete functionality
Date: Wed, 11 Dec 2013 21:59:14 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <52A8B602.4030303@riseup.net> (raw)
Hi everyone!
I was wondering if it is possible to add something like shred or wipe
functionality for Luks devices, call it luksWipe, to safely delete the
luks header in case of emergency by overwriting it several times with
random data as shred is doing to files for example.
Cheers!
Tada
