Encrypt data on a drive?

[kalpana]

Hi,

I have a server which shares a directory via SSH. This works well, this directory is mounted using SSHFS on all my Windows and Linux boxes.

Now the problem is: while the transmission of the data to and from that server is secure, they are not really secure on the server itself - as they are stored there completely unencrypted. So I'm looking for a solution to encrypt the data on that SSH-share so that nobody on the server can read them but only the clients that make use of SSHFS:

• BitLocker would do the job but is not available for Windows
• VeraCrypt is extremely buggy (no auto-mount of encrypted drives, random error messages when mounting an encrypted remote file, UI permanently forgets all settings which once have been done)

So...can anybody recommend a local encryption solution which works smoothly (like BitLocker) but is available for windows AND Linux?

Thanks!
