Frequently Asked Questions

What encryption algorithm is used?

AES-256-GCM with PBKDF2 key derivation, which is military-grade encryption.

Can I decrypt on another device?

Yes. Anyone with the encrypted file and the correct password can decrypt it using this tool.

Is this cryptographically secure?

Yes. The tool uses the Web Crypto API for cryptographic operations, providing the same security level as native applications.

What's inside the .encrypted-bundle.zip?

Two files — a `.enc` containing the raw AES-256-GCM ciphertext and a `.key.json` sidecar holding the PBKDF2 salt, AES-GCM IV, original filename, and algorithm metadata. The recipient unzips the bundle and feeds both files plus the password into the decrypt tool. Switch the Output format toggle to ".encrypted file" if you prefer one self-contained file instead.
