[Torsion-dev] Privacy and security

[Catatonic Porpoise]

Hello, I find the Torsion project very interesting. It is a great way to
make use of the power 64-bit CPUs provide.

About transparent persistence, though, it seems that forensic
investigation of a hard drive is very possible, while investigating traces
of data left in RAM is not practicable. So it seems like there are things
I would want in RAM only, but not on the hard disk, such as my password,
for instance.

How do you plan to deal with this? Encrypt all memory saved to the hard
disk, using a key the user must enter at boot? Or is there a better way?

Thanks,
