Hi, I was planning to encrypt my files with GPG for safety before uploading them to the cloud. However, from what I understand GPG doesn’t pad files/do much to prevent file fingerprinting. I was looking around for a way to reliably pad files and encrypt metadata for them but couldn’t find anything. Haven’t found any recommendations on the privacyguides website either. Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks

    Sounds like you want a proper backup solution. Take a look at borg backup, a tool that supports encrypted, deduplicated, compressed, incremental backups. You can even directly save to your cloud via protocols such as ssh, s3, etc.
