Title: Need Help Securing my Wallets Post by: JessicaMILFson on April 25, 2013, 06:36:14 PM Hi,
I'm not really a tech savvy person but I was wondering if I could get someone to answer my questions. Title: Re: Need Help Securing my Wallets Post by: Gator-hex on April 25, 2013, 08:58:00 PM Why go through all that, when you can just create an EXT4 partition with encrypted HOME folder when you install Ubuntu 12.10.
Don't ever mine on the same machine you have your wallets on. I might even go as far as keeping the lightcoin wallet on a different user account to the bitcoin wallet! :D Title: Re: Need Help Securing my Wallets Post by: Anon136 on April 26, 2013, 12:31:28 AM Not really that technologically literate with Ubuntu. It's already installed, can I still encrypt the home? just use pendrivelinux to run an os that never touches the internet then you are safe from key loggers. And just use the regular encryption that comes with all bitcoin clients and you will be safe from brute force. dont forget to back up your encrypted wallet.dat in several places, if you use the method described above you can even store the wallet.dat file publicly. |
