hi i was just wondering if someone plugged my live liberte linux usb into a computer could they pull anything off i know that when you run the setup at first it hides all the files and folders for liberte but could someone just plug it in and somehow get to those files or the os because theres no password or encryption for the usb its self? and if not what security is in place and how hard would it be to break if possible?
thanks, alpine

When you start liberte for the first time it will ask you to setup an encryption password that encrypts your data and is required to boot. The encrypted data is not recoverable by plugging the usb drive into another computer and simply browsing for the files.
