I am using TrueCrypt now, i made a filebased encrypted filesystem on my usb-stick, that gets mounted as partition and i am using that to store my gpg secret-keyring. It's all working very well, i am only a little concerned about the protection against bruteforce attacks - as TC uses symmetrically encryption. Is it possible to specify a min password length (maybe entropie) from that on the password can be considered 'safe' against bruteforcing? I think i gotta read/think a little more about the whole security issue around it. Regards, =k3Rn=
