Hello @fvodopive ,
Thanks for your question, that is a very interesting use case
Right now we are not sure if and how TorizonCore deals with encrypted data, but we will ask internally and get back to you as soon as we have the information.
Of course if you want to add some encryption capabilities on your own to the base OS, you can rebuild it and at your own custom layers.
Just two more questions:

There are a few options for encrypting external USB storage on a Linux system, such as the Colibri iMX6 running Torizon.
Both dm-crypt and LUKS are good options for encrypting the external USB storage on your Colibri iMX6 running Torizon, but LUKS provides a more user-friendly experience. eCryptfs is good for file level encryption but might not be the best solution for whole storage encryption.
Please note that all mentioned solutions are not included in Torizon core by default.
Hello Josep,
I am using TorizonCore -5.7.0 and Verdin iMX8M Mini SoM
