Features

To do:

• Proper authentication using an encrypted channel and scrypt for the password (or another decent KDF)
  • Actually, this is done by the FTPS server
• Shared folder
  • To be synced across all devices, whereas content on the DefaultFrame is managed on a per-item(s) basis
• Single view on the DefaultFrame (unsynced remote files)
  • Upload using the "Open" menu under File
  • Download by right-clicking one or more items and choosing "Download"
  • Drag and drop support for both DL and UL (from/to the client)
• File transactions with FTP over TLS (aka FTPS)
  • Explicit mode, using AES-256 w/ GCM
• File/directory sharing via a unique access link, possibly protected by a password
  • ACLs
• UI adjustments
  • Options menu
  • Populate Preferences menu
• Benchmarking tool
• Logging (for crashes, etc.)

Latest commit:

• Encryption/decryption of local files
  • Parallelized mode available (causes a memory leak)
    • Each select file will be process by its own Thread, effectively processing all files at the same time
• Authentication over TLS, using SHA384
  • Two rounds:
    • First, the client sends its username and password over TLS to the authentication server and this one checks for a match. If correct, the client receives a unique random token. Finally, it closes the TLS connection.
    • Second, the user sends its username and the previously received token over TLS to the data server checks. This one checks if an entry username:token exists. If yes, the connection stays open and data may flow. Else it is closed.

v0.1:

• Encryption/decryption of local files
