Encrypt FreeBSD partition

P15C15

P15C15

It is possible to encrypt a UFS partition on 11.2? I ask because I read a time ago that it will possible in the 11.2.
 
Note that you cannot encrypt (or decrypt) a disk (or filesystem) "in-place". The encryption needs to be set up beforehand. You cannot convert an existing filesystem to an encrypted filesytem.

I'm not sure where you got this from but geli(8) has been around since FreeBSD 6.0, and gbde(8) since FreeBSD 5.0.
