Suspend to ram and encryption

Hi,

I installed Arch on my netbook with LUKS encryption on the /home partition.
I frequently use suspend to RAM on this netbook, but I find quite insecure the fact that if I suspend the netbook and then resume later, an attacker could have access to all my data unencrypted.
What would be the proper way to use suspend to RAM and encryption?

Would it be possible to prompt for a passphrase to mount the /home encrypted partition
when waking up from suspend?
