Abstract
In this paper we present a solution for an encrypted environment for portable computers in order to preserve the confidentiality of data and the security of its communication. There are at least two potential attack vectors on confidential information stored on a device. The first attack vector is achieved through an insecure network connection, while the other is physical access to an insufficiently protected device. For both attack vectors we offer protection solutions. To protect the network connection we offer an implementation of OpenVPN virtual private network driven by Raspberry Pi device from the user’s home network, while for physical protection TrueCrypt is used for full disk encryption. For added security of internet traffic we are proposing the implementation of Tor anonymous encrypted connection, driven by a Raspberry Pi device as an access point (AP).
