not related to ceph, but if you use qemu, they are a luks driver for qemu, so 
you can encrypt from qemu process to storage.

Objet: [ceph-users] Encryption questions

Hi everyone, I have some questions about encryption in Ceph. 
1) Are RBD connections encrypted or is there an option to use encryption 
between clients and Ceph? From reading the documentation, I have the impression 
that the only option to guarantee encryption in transit is to force clients to 
encrypt volumes via dmcrypt. Is there another option? I know I could encrypt 
the OSDs but that's not going to solve the problem of encryption in transit. 

2) I'm also struggling to understand if communication between Ceph daemons 
(monitors and OSDs) are encrypted or not. I came across a few references about 
msgr2 but I couldn't tell if it is already implemented. Can anyone confirm 
this? 

I'm currently starting a new project using Ceph Mimic but if there's something 
new in this space expected for Nautilus, it would be good to know as well. 

Regards, 

Sergio
