A simple, lightweight app that lets you encrypt/decrypt files or entire directories in complete privacy.
Most operating systems/applications that encrypt data store their keys on your computer. That's like buying a safe and hiding the key in the same room... Sounds like a pretty easy place for someone to find it.
This application was built so that anybody and everybody can exercise their right to privacy in the digital age. Podax implements AES 256 CTR encryption and suggests strong passwords to protect your information.
It's highly recommended you use as a long/sophisticated password... Always write it down somewhere! You can look at cryptocurrency wallets for a good idea of how to build a good password - the Podax password suggestions use the same vocabulary list as the Monero cryptocurrency wallets.
Podax will never save passwords and was built open-source so that you can verify there are no keyloggers or network communications being made.
Keys are never stored and are unrecoverable after encryption
Nothing to hide here. Reach out to collaborate or request new capabilities.
Purely offline application, no inbound/outbound network calls made.
