  • Initialize or mount an encrypted filesystem:
    encfs /path/to/cipher_dir /path/to/mount_point
  • Initialize an encrypted filesystem with standard settings:
    encfs --standard /path/to/cipher_dir /path/to/mount_point
  • Run encfs in the foreground instead of spawning a daemon:
    encfs -f /path/to/cipher_dir /path/to/mount_point
  • Mount an encrypted snapshot of a plain directory:
    encfs --reverse path/to/plain_dir path/to/cipher_dir
