I've got EncFS encrypted filesystems on Dropbox, BTSync, GoogleDrive, and Jottacloud (a non-US based cloud storage provider). It's been working fine over the last month or so of testing. In MacOSX, I've got both EncFS over FUSE and the commercial BoxCryptor packaged version happly working together. I've got Ubuntu 9 & 12.04LTS, ARCH Linux on a RaspberryPi, and iOS on my phone and iPad all syncing some or all of those EncFS containers and successfully reading/writing them. I haven't tried, but I have no reason to doubt BoxCryptor will happily read/write those filesystems on Windows and Android.

One thing I particularly like about this setup, is that I can have encrypted data synced to a machine that doesn't have the decryption key (or even software) on it – my media server and a machine at work are "backing up" all that data without it being "exposed" even if a machine and disks get stolen/confiscated.

This is different to a truecrypt volume, in that the files are still discrete:

  [Bigs-MacBook-Pro:~/Dropbox/BoxCryptor-DB.bc] bigiain% ls -l
  total 7544
  -rw-r--r--@  1 bigiain  admin      625 12 Jun 10:59   !IMPORTANT BoxCryptor Information.txt

  -rw-r--r--@  1 bigiain  admin    15364  7 Aug 21:25 nMrARYb-KDbdDj2

individual files can get synced as the change, without needing to re-sync the entire volume. On the downside, that means I leak some metadata, file sizes and modification dates, but not names or contents. I also lose the tryecrypt option of hidden volumes, but perhaps that's a plus in that they wont hit me with the $5 wrench insisting that there's _another_ password - even if there isn't…
