LUKS addresses a completely different attack vector than network intrusion. As long as the LUKS device is decrypted on a running machine it is not much of a help. LUKS protects data during the encrypted state, e.g. when a stolen laptop was in shutdown state at that time, and it helps to protect data when disks are up to renewal and someone else has got access to the older disks later. Without LUKS the disk erasing process needs time and might well be quiet expensive. -- kind regards Frank
