At the moment, Phyllome OS does **not** provide any kind of encryption by default at the host level. Filesystem-level encryption is just one layer of protection. For any virtual disks that contains personnal data, users are strongly advised to use full disk encryption as provided by their guest operating system. ## Introduction
This guide will show you how to compile [^1] and configure `fscrypt` to encrypt virtual disk images.
