Bash Script to automate tasks related to encrypting, mounting, and unmounting drives encrypted with LUKS

CrypTool.sh

A little script I threw together to help streamline the process of encrypting drives, mounting them, and un-mounting them. This is mainly useful on servers that do not have a GUI because typically the GUI will have an automated way of detecting and mounting the drive but on a computer without a GUI you wont have those tools, thus I felt the need for a more streamline process.

Getting Started

All you need to do to use this script is have a Linux device with the cryptsetup package installed

Prerequisites

cryptsetup

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install cryptsetup

Installing

You can download the cryptool.sh file, make it executable and run it directly or you can use git to copy the entire package.

git clone https://github.com/superadm1n/cryptool
cd cryptool
sudo chmod 700 cryptool.sh

Usage

Encrypting a drive

sudo ./cryptool.sh --encrypt

Mounting a drive

sudo ./cryptool.sh --mount

Un-mounting a drive

sudo ./cryptool.sh --unmount
