Encryption Passphrase Bypass?

[earnshae]

I am kind of new to this...

I recently set up a new webserver for hosting a small site.

When I installed the server I selected full disk encryption.

Recently I have been experiencing some power fluctuations which have been causing the server to reboot. I am going to install a ups to minimize this problem, however when the server reboots it prompts for the pass phrase.

Is there away to bypass this pass-phrase?

In future I believe that purhaps full disk encryption is uncalled for a webserver....

If there was a way to bypass it then there wouldn't be a point to encrypting the disk.

you could go for a key file maybe present on a USB stick, but again, if you leave it plugged in then what's the point.

disk encryption is a security measure against physical access rather than remote which is what people usually protect against on webservers.
