# Tomb: The Linux Crypto Undertaker
[](https://github.com/dyne/Tomb/actions)
Minimalistic command line tool based on Linux dm-crypt and LUKS, trusted by hackers since 2007.
You can keep your volumes secure and easily manageable with simple commands.
Create a new 120MiB `secret.tomb` folder and lock it with a new `secret.tomb.key` file.
```
$ tomb dig -s 120 secret.tomb
$ tomb forge -k secret.tomb.key
$ tomb lock -k secret.tomb.key secret.tomb
```
To open it, do
```
$ tomb open -k secret.tomb.key secret.tomb
```
And after you are done
```
$ tomb close
```
Or, if you are in a hurry, kill all processes with open files inside your tomb and close it.
```
$ tomb slam
```
