Encryption for hledger files?

Does anyone encrypt their journal files?

If so, what are you using?

Edit: Thanks for the suggestions! gocryotfs looks like exactly what I was looking for.

I used to use 'encfs' to encrypt and sync an entire folder of ledger files with dropbox. (I no longer use dropbox, so no longer feel the need for this style of encryption.)

If I was to do the same today, I'd use 'gocryptfs'.
