s3eps acts as a http proxy between end users and AWS s3, encrypting uploaded files and decrypting the files when they are downloaded. It's implemented in Node.
It started out as a summer startup project between an associate and myself. Unfortunately we finished just before Amazon announced support for server side encryption, essentially removing our market out from under us.
I still think there's a need for client side encryption where total control over keys and files can be maintained (Amazon's client side solution requires Java). Hence I am open sourcing the software as-is.
It is released under the terms of the 3-Clause BSD license.
It was developed and tested under Node version 0.4.10
there are only a few external libraries used. To install:
- npm install redis
- npm install hiredis
- npm install rbytes
