This project offers a security module for Linux users who handle highly sensitive data and need an emergency data destruction option. It allows you to protect your system with an extra layer of authentication using either physical USB keys or two separate passwords. If an emergency arises, you can input a 'panic' key or password to immediately and securely erase your encrypted hard drive's header, making the data unreadable.

No commits in the last 6 months.

Use this if you are an individual or organization requiring extreme data security and a failsafe mechanism to destroy sensitive information rapidly under duress.

Not ideal if you simply need basic data encryption or a standard two-factor authentication solution without the need for an emergency data destruction feature.
