🚀 Features

  • Encrypt and decrypt every value of a JSON file, preserving keys, nesting and arrays
  • Authenticated encryption with AES-GCM 256: a wrong password or tampered data is rejected
  • Password-based key derivation with Argon2id
  • Simple command-line interface (-o operation, -f file, -p password)
  • Self-contained, single-file executables for Windows, Linux and macOS - no .NET runtime required

🔒 Security

  • A fresh random salt and nonce are generated for every value, so encryption is non-deterministic
  • Each value carries everything needed to decrypt it: salt | nonce | tag | ciphertext, Base64-encoded

⚠️ Known limitations

  • Files are processed in place (the input file is overwritten)
  • Non-string JSON values come back as strings after a round-trip (e.g. 30 becomes "30")
  • The published binaries are not code-signed, so macOS and Windows require a one-time step to allow them to run
