There are some projects available on the Internet which essentially provide a two-factor decryption of your LUKS encrypted block devices using OTP devices like the YubiKey. However, I was not satisfied with those as their security can be improved. In this talk, I will introduce a project forked from one the existing ones and the measures I have taken in it to harden it.
