This is particularly a problem at my workplace. I cannot trust anyone
here. Unfortunately there are no useful counter-measures other than
using key files on a USB stick, from which you boot, which isn't quite
easy to handle (backups and such), and not quite secure. A
smartcard-based solution would be nice.
