Description:
PEFS is a kernel level stacked cryptographic filesystem for FreeBSD. Key features: * Transparently runs on top of existing file systems * Random per file tweak value for encryption * Stores metadata only in encrypted file name * Arbitrary number of keys per file system, mixing keys in same directory and key chains * Modern cryptographic algorithms: AES and Camellia in XTS mode, PKCS#5v2 and HKDF for key generation.
