File encryption with a browser.

I've been exploring the #WebCryptoAPI and I'm impressed!

When combined with the #FileSystemAPI, it offers a seemingly secure way to #encrypt and #store files directly on your device. Think #localstorage, but with #encryption!

I know #webapps can have #security vulnerabilities since the code is served over the web, so I've #OpenSourced my demo! You can check it out, and it should even work if #selfhosted on #GitHubPages.

IMPORTANT NOTES (PLEASE READ!):
* This is NOT a product. It's for #testing and #demonstration purposes only.
* It has NOT been reviewed or audited. Do NOT use for sensitive data.
* The "password encryption" currently uses a hardcoded password. This is for demonstration, not security.
* This is NOT meant to replace robust solutions like #VeraCrypt. It's just a #proofofconcept to show what's possible with #browser #APIs.

I think people should check out cryptomator (especially in the UK)

@cryptomator is great

When is it necessary to use the 'base64_encode()' and 'base64_decode()' function https://chat-to.dev/post?id=ak5FOXdnek13UXRGbGJhcU15Y3p1QT09&redirect=/new #encrypt #programming #php #python #backend

Can a #PWA be considered #selfhosted?

I am working on a chat app with a unique difference. It's a #progressivewebapp with no fixed backend.

I am able to do thing like store data, #encrypt/#decrypt #data, access #network, camera etc.

I would like it that when somone goes to the website, the app running in the #browser, can be considered "selfhosted". You would be using your own device to run the #javascript in the browser and #storage provided by the browser is also from your #device.

As a javascript app, it will do all the encryption, data storage, etc on your browser using only the resources the browser will provide. I believe the functionality as a result is substancially independent and selfhosted.

the app is cached for running offline and is essentialy a static bundle that can work by running index.html without a static server.

Further details about how my app works can be seen on the #opensource project here: https://github.com/positive-intentions/chat

I think there is a reasonable case for this to be considered selfhosted. Unless the definition of selfhosted is strictly "cumbersome to setup". What are your thoughts?

So. Linux

My PC runs Linux (Fedora) and with the current gen Hardware in it the ancient old Question pops up again: Full Disk Encryption or not?

At least some ciphers should be HW-accellerated (AES-SNI). But then there is the hassle of entering the password. And the annoyance.

But on the other side...

What do you guys think?

With #Ubuntu #Linux it is possible to #encrypt all your #personal #files in your #home directory.
That is especially nice if you want to have many user accounts on one computer with #administrator (#sudo) rights - even then, they cannot access your files. That secures #login details, #photos, #browsing #history, #secrets and so on.

@davidoclubb could you try this on your #Linux #Phone and create a blog post/toot?
