  1. Well, time to advertise my own competing offering: https://github.com/netheril96/securefs . Works on Win, Linux, Mac and BSD.

  2. Love gocryptfs but it doesn't work well on Mac. securefs[1] works fine on both Linux & Mac. [1] https://github.com/netheril96/securefs

  3. I wasn’t satisfied with the options available, so I wrote my own: https://github.com/netheril96/securefs . It has authenticated encryption, highest quality of password stretching, and works on both Unix-like and Windows.

  4. If it is not against the rules, I want to promote my project ( https://github.com/netheril96/securefs ) here. It is essentially the same functionality, but with authenticated encryption, better password hashing and optionally file size…

  9. …file (as opposed to an on-disk encrypted volume), you may want to check my open source project https://github.com/netheril96/securefs . It encrypts at file level with AES-GCM, rather than AES-XTS at block level, and the size is not fixed…

  10. Tangentially related is my open source project on an authenticated encryption filesystem: https://github.com/netheril96/securefs .

  11. I wrote a filesystem in userspace (FUSE) with authenticated authentication for self use ( https://github.com/netheril96/securefs ). It got a modest number of stars now, but few from HN (mostly from Reddit, judging by how upvoted the post…

  12. If anyone is interested in client side encryption, checkout my project securefs ( https://github.com/netheril96/securefs ). It is better than TrueCrypt as its encryption is randomized and authenticated, hence more secure, and it does not…

  15. I wrote a competing implementation (I wasn't aware of gocryptfs before) at https://github.com/netheril96/securefs . Many points are similar: for example, a random file ID, 4KiB blocks encrypted with AES-GCM mixed with the ID and block…

  16. I wrote a FUSE filesystem ( https://github.com/netheril96/securefs ) to secure the data that is meant to be synced to the cloud. In principle it is more secure than alternatives because the randomization and authentication of encryption.…
