Description
systemd-homed allows individual home directories to be encrypted with unique keys. This brings obvious privacy benefits, such as making it impossible access a logged-out user's files even as an administrator. It can also throw away your encryption keys when you suspend your device, increasing the security of laptops in their most-common state.
Thanks to work made possible by the STF grant, GNOME now integrates with systemd-homed. This talk describes what it took to get here, what new features it gives us, and what still remains to be done
