- roadnottaken 12y agoCan anyone else comment on the viability of this option? It seems pretty nice, from the website, but I'd like to hear more about it's reputation in the security community.
- MichaelGG 12y agoGetSafe was discussed a few times on HN. A potentially interesting thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7588497 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7588497 It is not full disk encryption, so not a direct alternative for a product like TrueCrypt. I believe it uses a RAM disk for the files so you're limited in size, too - something like that. Personally I'm not a big fan of using WebDAV to expose the encrypted file system - it seems like a large liability. But I'm not a real security expert at all, just saying it sounds complicated to get right (caching could keep a unencrypted copy) and exposes an even larger attack surface.
