Cockpit 175
category: release
Cockpit is the modern Linux admin interface. We release regularly. Here are the release notes from version 175.
Storage: Key management for encrypted devices
This release adds encrypted storage support for passphrases and network keyservers.
Under the hood, LUKSv1 manages encrypted devices, allowing up to 8 different key “slots”. Each slot may contain a passphrase or can provide NBDE by binding to a Tang server using Clevis.
In a future release, we’re planning to add key groups and more authentication types. Key groups bypass the 8 slot limitation and provide complex authentication rules. Stay tuned!
