Yes, authentication is the only critical thing from my POV. While encryption
is a nice to have, there are plenty of storage systems which do *not* do
encryption. Guest data can still be protected simply by running LUKS on the
guest disks, so lack of encryption is not a serious security risk, provided
the authentication scheme itself does not require encryption in order to
be secure.

Daniel
