AES file format support for interoperability
Ferk opened this issue · 0 comments
I'm using secrecy to store encrypted text files with PINs, passwords and bank data, and it seems to work really well!!
But I'm syncing the data to my computer and I've noticed that the format the files are stored in is not interoperable in any way. I can't access the files anywhere else than in the android app.
There's already an AES File Format that was introduced by the AESCrypt tool and has some features that improve streaming and the speed for password verification.
There's also already a Java library from the same developers: https://www.aescrypt.com/java_aes_crypt.html
It would be nice if Secrecy would support this, since it would allow interoperability between devices, and this combined with cloud storage apps makes a safe storage app like this way more useful.
