+Such data includes IP addresses, networks, MAC addresses, and more. Data obfuscated
+by this command will remain consistent throughout the report and across reports provided

.SH GLOBAL OPTIONS
sos components provide their own set of options, however the following are available
to be set across all components.
+.B \-\-batch
+Do not prompt interactively, user will not be prompted for any data
+.TP
+.B \--encrypt-key KEY
+Encrypts the resulting archive that sosreport produces using GPG. KEY must be
+an existing key in the user's keyring as GPG does not allow for keyfiles.
+KEY can be any value accepted by gpg's 'recipient' option.
+
+Note that the user running sosreport must match the user owning the keyring
+from which keys will be obtained. In particular this means that if sudo is
+used to run sosreport, the keyring must also be set up using sudo
+(or direct shell access to the account).
+
+Users should be aware that encrypting the final archive will result in sos
+using double the amount of temporary disk space - the encrypted archive must be
+written as a separate, rather than replacement, file within the temp directory
+that sos writes the archive to. However, since the encrypted archive will be
+the same size as the original archive, there is no additional space consumption
+once the temporary directory is removed at the end of execution.
+
+This means that only the encrypted archive is present on disk after sos
+finishes running.
+
+If encryption fails for any reason, the original unencrypted archive is
+preserved instead.
+.TP
+.B \--encrypt-pass PASS
+The same as \--encrypt-key, but use the provided PASS for symmetric encryption
+rather than key-pair encryption.
+.TP
.B \--config-file CONFIG
Specify alternate configuration file.
