The easy answer is that any system that is configured to use full disk
encryption (LUKS is the default one on many distros.) will give you that
automatically.

You have not provided more detail to know if this is what you had in
mind or would be sufficient for your requirements.  If you require the
daemon to write to encrypted log files, then you may be out of luck.
