Secure login with Ipod Shuffle RAID
March 15th, 2005 by teemowJim from ‘Wright this way’ bought 4 Ipod Shuffle and an USB hub to build a portable 4 GB Ipod Shuffle RAID for his Mac. He even tried to make it his boot device.
But if you think of people using pam_usb (Gentoo HOWTO) to authenticate themselves via an USB stick, there are even more capabilities than just saving data on the RAID (even better with crypto_fs) and giving those 4 Shuffles to differrent people, so that there is no chance to read the data until every Shuffle is back again.
Its the classical conspiracy organisation security thing. There are 4 viziers who will protect the secret chamber and you can just enter if you get all the Ipod Shuffles. Thats geeky!
