The encrypt file is a CLI for encrypting and decrypting files.

Why should I use the encrypt file?

  • No Code: When there is no need to code something you can simply use encrypt file.
  • Abstraction of cryptographic algorithms: you don't need to know what goes on behind the scenes in encrypt file (but if you want, just see it on github).

Requirements

This project is tested with:

Requisite Version
Python 3.8.10
Pip 21.2.4

Install

pip install encrypt-file

Usage

  • 🔒 Encrypt 🔒
encrypt-file \
          --func encrypt \
          --file plain_text.txt \
          --password 123456
  • 🔓 Decrypt 🔓
encrypt-file \
          --func decrypt \
          --file plain_text.txt.enc \
          --password 123456

What is the security level?

  • Even using low-quality passwords, encrypt file tries to make things as secure as possible because it is implemented using PBKDF2 key deviation with SHA256 hash, a 16-bit random salt and 10,000 rounds.
