aespipe is an encryption tool that reads from standard input and
writes to standard output. It uses the AES (Rijndael) cipher.
.
- It can be used as an encryption filter, to create and restore
- encrypted tar/cpio backup archives and to read/write and convert
- loop-AES compatible encrypted images.
- .
aespipe can be used for non-destructive in-place encryption
of existing disk partitions for use with the loop-AES encrypted
loopback kernel module.
+ .
+ It can also be used as an encryption filter to create and restore
+ encrypted tar/cpio backup archives and to read/write and convert
+ loop-AES compatible encrypted images.
+ .
+ Note that aespipe does not store any length information with the
+ encrypted images, so it cannot be used as general purpose filter
+ for encryption, but only for certain formats like tar.
