Take the security of your data into your own hands
Cryptomator is a simple tool for digital self-defense. It allows you to protect your cloud data by yourself and independently.
Most cloud providers encrypt data only during transmission or they keep the keys for decryption for themselves. These keys can be stolen, copied, or misused. Thanks to Cryptomator, only you have the key to your data in your hand.
Cryptomator allows you to access your files from all your devices. It's easy to use and integrates seamlessly between your data and the cloud.
How does Cryptomator protect your data?
Cryptomator's technology meets the latest standards and encrypts both files and filenames with AES and 256 bit key length.
To start with Cryptomator, you assign a password for a folder - we call it a vault - within your cloud. That is all. No complicated key creation, no registration, no configuration!
To access the vault, simply enter the password again. You will be provided with a virtual encrypted drive to which you can move your data - just like a USB flash drive. Every time you store something on this drive, Cryptomator encrypts the data automatically. Pretty simple, right?
The technology behind this is state-of-the-art and encrypts both files and filenames with AES and 256 bit key length. This means: if someone looks into the folder in your cloud, they cannot draw any conclusions about your data.
Optimal protection thanks to the latest technology standards
Why is Cryptomator secure and trustworthy?
No backdoors, no expiration date thanks to open source
You don't have to trust Cryptomator blindly, because it is open source software. For you as a user, this means that everyone can see the code.
Audited by security researchers
In addition to independent security audits, the software is continuously and publicly tested in an automated way and has a measurable code quality and test coverage that is far above the industry average.
GDPR-compliant synchronization with your entire team via the cloud
When using Cryptomator and a cloud service with an appropriate DPA, you can synchronize data GDPR-compliant over the cloud with an entire team.
For anyone using cloud storage, this is an absolute MUST in my opinion, especially these days. Yes, Dropbox is encrypted to begin with, but has stated that they will comply with government requests. Nevermind the possibility of a compromised account.
Over the past 6 months I have dropped my phone in water, got my laptop stolen, had a hard drive failure, and dropped another hard drive on the floor. I could either buy a new pair of hands and hope for the best, or move all my stuff to dropbox, and secure it with cryptomator.
Wer von euch gerne seine Daten verschlüsselt und trotzdem Cloud-Dienste nutzt: Ich habe mit @Cryptomator gute Erfahrungen gemacht. Sehr einfach, Verschlüsselung findet lokal statt, für Android, Mac und Windows (sicher auch Linux). Plus: Auf Spendenbasis für Desktop.
If you are storing files in the cloud on Dropbox, Google Drive, M$ Skydrive, iCloud or Amazon highly recommend @Cryptomator for client side encryption and privacy for all your stuff.
If you use cloud storage (#Dropbox, #GoogleDrive) #encrypt your files seamlessly with @cryptomator. It's free, #opensource, #zero-knowledge. Just like #Bitcoin.
This is by far one of the best apps I have installed. You guys Rock!!💪
Reception
Cryptomator is a 'pay what you want' proposition. I've been using it for quite some time, […], it's a handy tool if you're serious about keeping your files safe from prying eyes.
Skymatic's Cryptomator empowers cloud storage users to protect themselves against unauthorized access through free, transparent, client-side encryption.
Cryptomator is more accessible than other solutions because its desktop version is free, and it only charges a small fee for using its mobile app. And even if a hacker accesses a user's vault, Cryptomator's encrypted files are useless without the proper key to decode them.
With Cryptomator, you can encrypt your cloud storage by creating a vault in Dropbox and putting your files into it. With this extra layer of security, you'll build an almost insurmountable barrier against attackers – without restricting Dropbox's file storage and synchronization.
It is available for all major operating system including Android, iOS, Windows, Mac, Linux. Cryptomator uses AES-256 standard encryption and WebDAV and relies on its open-source model for software verifiability, trust and bug fixing. The software encrypts each file individually.
Dropbox files at rest are encrypted using 256-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). In fact, Dropbox is designed with multiple layers of protection to keep your files secure, above and beyond this encryption.
Strong Encryption: Cryptomator uses AES encryption with 256-bit key length, ensuring that your data is protected with one of the strongest encryption standards available. Open-Source Software: Being open-source, Cryptomator offers transparency in its security practices.
VeraCrypt is best suited to encrypt files in large containers on a local device, without revealing information about file structure, number or size. Cryptomator on the other hand encrypts each file individually, which makes it more suitable for cloud storage.
Cryptomator uses AES-256 encryption to hide file names, content and headers. It uses transparent encryption, meaning you can see the cipher text stored once the encryption has finished. Using brute force methods, it would take multiple billions of years to crack a vault, meaning Cryptomator is secure to use.
A7: To enable access to your files stored in Google Drive, Cryptomator needs both your permission and Google's consent. Google has recently adopted newer and stricter security policies that we must adhere to in order to continue to provide access to your Google Drive in the app.
It is very secure because of its 256-bit AES encryption. On top of that, it offers client-side encryption which uses zero-knowledge privacy principle. It is also equipped with the capability to administer filename encryption. The graphic user interface of Cryptomator is also very easy to use.
Cryptomator works by creating a virtual drive through which the encrypted contents can be displayed, edited and augmented. The vault (the encrypted data) itself can be located on any storage media connected to the computer, such as a local drive, network drive or USB flash drive.
Upon further investigation, we discovered that a threat actor had accessed data including Dropbox Sign customer information such as email addresses, user names, phone numbers and hashed passwords, in addition to general account settings and certain authentication information such as API keys, OAuth tokens, and multi- ...
Dropbox always encrypts your data when you upload it – and you also have the option of password protecting files or folders when you share them. Why is password protection so important? Passwords make sure that only the intended recipients of a file can access it.
While Dropbox does use standard encryption protocols, it doesn't offer end-to-end encryption which means your files and private information is accessible without you even knowing. They have access to the encryption key, so in theory your private files and information is a free for all at Dropbox.
Can Boxcryptor Encrypt Dropbox? Boxcryptor is one of the few companies that provides end-to-end encryption software directly to consumers. It's a zero-knowledge service that lets you encrypt your Dropbox files (and works with over 30 other cloud storage platforms, including Google Drive and OneDrive).
You can move a file to an automated folder just like you would move a file to any other folder in your Dropbox account. When you move a file to an automated folder, the selected automation will take effect. This works the same for your folders as well as folders shared with teammates.
