Cryptography & Advanced Security

  • Advanced Cryptographic Primitives

    Employs industry-leading algorithms, including Ed25519 for server synchronization signing, X25519 for server synchronization encryption, and XChaCha20-Poly1305 for robust local data encryption.

  • Secure Key Derivation

    Utilizes Argon2 for highly secure password derivation and HMAC for standard key derivation protocols.

  • Hardware-Level Security Integration

    Leverages native device cryptographic functions and incorporates large, unique salts for every operation to guarantee maximum security.

  • Double Encryption Routing

    Offers an optional secondary encryption layer for highly sensitive individual items.

  • Cryptographic File Hashing

    Supports multiple file attachments per item with built-in hashing verification to ensure absolute file integrity.

  • Biometric Authentication

    Integrates seamlessly with hardware-backed security modules (e.g., Secure Enclave) for safe, biometric-enabled encryption and decryption.

  • Anti-Espionage Safeguards

    Actively protects against screen recording, direct screenshots, background screenshots, and visibility within the OS app switcher.

  • Self-Sufficient Transport Security

    Clients and servers autonomously encrypt their connections without relying on external Certificate Authorities (CAs).

Zero-Knowledge & Absolute Privacy

  • Zero-Knowledge Architecture

    Data is strictly encrypted at rest (on disk), in transit, and on the server 100% of the time. The server never holds the decryption keys.

  • Strict Ownership Verification

    Demands explicit verification of the owner via the master password upon initial login.

  • Absolute Data Ownership

    Operates without middlemen, account creation, or email recovery loops; privacy is governed entirely by the user.

  • Absolute Privacy & Zero Tracking

    Guarantees complete data ownership with absolutely no embedded tracking codes, advertisements, or third-party error-logging tools.

  • Privacy Controls

    Allows users to explicitly hide specific elements or fields from the standard view when necessary.

  • Just-in-Time Decryption

    Individual items remain securely encrypted in memory and are only unlocked precisely when accessed by the user.

  • Intelligent Lock Management

    Features smart auto-unlock from the background and customizable automatic lock timeouts.

Synchronization & Scalability

  • Multi-Server Synchronization

    Supports simultaneous synchronization across multiple independent servers.

  • Efficient Data Mirroring

    Facilitates highly efficient, real-time data mirroring across all connected clients and servers.

  • Instantaneous Synchronization

    Ensures all data changes are pushed and pulled instantaneously across devices.

  • High-Performance Scaling

    Maintains blazing-fast UI responsiveness and a minimal data footprint, even when managing thousands of entries.

  • Flexible Network Architecture

    Operates securely over standard HTTP or custom ports, granting users the freedom to deploy behind a reverse proxy.

Data Integrity & Intelligent Workflows

  • Append-Only Versioning

    Operates on an immutable data structure where nothing is deleted; modifications are appended, allowing users to restore previous versions.

  • Intelligent Conflict Resolution

    Smart protocols automatically handle out-of-sync servers and items, permanently preventing data duplication.

  • Rigorous Consistency Verification

    Automatically verifies data consistency during unlocking and supports extensive manual offline verification.
