You don't have to if you use EncFS. All encryption is done client-side.
The only thing your VPS provider could do is delete your files, but Unison's backup feature should protect you from losing your files (in a way).
- bmslieght 13y agoYour VPS provider, can in effect, chroot in to your environment, so EncFS is vunerable.
- duaneb 13y agoIf encryption is done client-side, the data is still encrypted server-side and chrooting does nothing.
- Tho85 13y agoWhat do you mean by 'vulnerable'? All encryption is done on your computer/notebook, so a chroot on the server doesn't decrypt the files.
- pyre 13y agoThe EncFS is mounted locally (client-side), so the files aren't decrypted at all on the server-side. You're just syncing fully encrypted files.
