tomb

I stopped as well, but went for a different setup: Tomb [1] and Pass [2]. There's even a combination of the two: pass-tomb [3], but I don't use it. No cloud, only USB keys. The thing is, I lost two of these USB keys! Had to rotate my passwords ;) [1]: https://github.com/dyne/Tomb [2]: https://github.com/zx2c4/password-store [3]: https://github.com/roddhjav/pass-tomb

As far as I'm aware from my brief use of tomb, it's a small shell wrapper around GPG and dm-crypt[1]. I suppose realistically anywhere you have access to the required tools (or something that pretends to be them but does platform-specific stuff underneath) you could use tomb.

tomb is a front end to cryptsetup[3] and it uses LUKS as an encrypted volume format. LUKS is more secure than TrueCrypt encrypted format because it takes steps to make it harder to brute force the LUKS header. TrueCrypt for example uses fixed and low pbkfd2 iteration counts as specified in the report.LUKS on the other hand uses adaptive pbkdf2 iteration count number that goes up automatically when a LUKS volume is created on a faster computer. The appeal of TrueCrypt other than portability atleast among linux users is an easier to use GUI.Fortunately, there is a project called zuluCrypt[1] than supports TrueCrypt volumes among others and has a GUI window that is comparable to TrueCrypt's GUI. If you are a user of tombs,zuluCrypt can also open tombs through its "gpg" and "tomb" plugins[2] [1] http://code.google.com/p/zulucrypt/ [2] https:
