Sorry if this subject has been hashed and rehashed again, but I was wondering which Gentoo partition encryption scheme is considered the best, in terms of:

1. Security

"....Another thing: If I remember correctly, LUKS keeps the actual key on the encrypted disk, itself encrypted with a passphrase. Naturally this means that an attacker only has to break the passphrase, which gets him the key"

FYI; I don't know if the above is correct.
