Vinícius Z.

Born and raised in Ceará (Brazil); for decades working on systems automation and engineering, motivated to build secure infrastructures and high‑quality solutions - cloud or on‑prem - especially hybrid setups to maximize sovereignty. Experienced in developing methods to improve privacy and device analysis.

Long‑time advocate of BSD operating systems, IPv6 enthusiast, and volunteer contributor to free and open‑source software projects; FreeBSD ports committer and Core Team member of the Tor Project (also a bridge/relay operator).

On top of it all, apparently a hybrid athlete.

ELKE - Encrypted & Lovely Kage Environment, using FreeBSD
Vinícius Z.

This talk will cover the custom installation of a FreeBSD environment on a physical (or virtual) server to provide a system with full disk encryption that can be remotely unlocked via SSH (optionally combined with Tor onion services) — the main disk partition may provide encrypted ZFS pools or datasets (where we install the operating system and/or store sensitive data).

It is all based on FreeBSD CURRENT, and therefore covers the usage of pkgbase. A touch of "how to implement the automation of this setup" shall also be shared during the talk.
