Live App: https://hypervault.github.io/

The source is in the src directory, and the deployment artifacts are in the root directory (as required by Github Pages).

• Hypervault is client-side file encryption web app.
• Hypervault is entirely contained in a single, static .html file.
  • As such, you can save the Hypervault page, and you will have a complete working copy of Hypervault which you can run offline.
  • Hypervault has no server-side components.
• Hypervault outputs another single .html file which contains both the encrypted file data, and a copy of itself.

• It seems to work in most modern desktop browsers
• iOS support is coming soon
• Android is not yet tested

cd src
npm install
npm install -g grunt-cli
bower install
grunt build

./serve-dist.sh

Then localhost:8000 in browser.

grunt serve

• Hypervault uses the HTML5 File API to read file data into the browser client-side.
• It then stores all the filenames, file types, file sizes, and file data (as base64) in a JSON object.
• The user enters a Vault password and clicks Lock vault; Hypervault builds a locked vault like this:
  • Hypervault serializes the JSON blob containing all the file data, and encryptes it using the triplesec encryption library. The output of this is a single string.
  • Hypervault then grabs it's own source code (without making any web requests), and treats it as a template with which it interpolates the encrypted file data by replacing the REPLACE_WITH_ENCRYPTED_DATA_.
  • Hypervault also sets a variable in the new vault to indicate that this is a locked vault: _decryptionMode = true;.
  • Hypervault then initiates a download of the new locked_vault.html.

• Secure
  • Hypervault uses the Triplesec library, which uses 3 strong encryption algorithms (AES, Salsa20, and Blowfish), so you can rest assured that your data is safe, even if a couple of the ciphers are compromised.
  • Since Hypervault runs in a browser (which is sandboxed), you never have to worry that it doing anything nefarious on your computer.
  • Zero-knowledge: Hypervault encryption is all client-side, so even if Hypervault's servers are compromised, your data is still safe.
• Easy
  • No installations necessary, just run in the browser.
• Offline
  • Since Hypervault is a self-contained .html file, you save it to your desktop and run it offline.
• Always usable
  • Since Hypervault packages itself with your encrypted data (in the form of a locked_vault.html file, you can always decrypt your data, even if Hypervault goes away.

• Image file previews
• Multiple file support
• Add more help to app (to make it more self-explanatory).
• Add "Download Hypervault Offline" button.
• iOS Support
• Android Support
• Text file preview
• Add "inline" texts, so users can create a hypervault with text without ever having to put that text in a file.
• Add some animations to clarify a few things.
• More unit tests.
• Clean up redundant CSS.
• Improve code style.
• Remove FileSaver.js dependency?
• Add compression (lzma?) to encrypted data?
