How It Works

🔒 Encryption Process

  1. Select files from your device (they stay in your browser)
  2. Enter a strong password
  3. Your browser encrypts each file using AES-256-GCM
  4. Download encrypted files with .nutenc extension
  5. Share encrypted files safely — they can only be decrypted with your password

🔓 Decryption Process

  1. Upload .nutenc encrypted files
  2. Enter the password used during encryption
  3. Your browser decrypts and restores original files
  4. Download decrypted files
⚠️ Important Security Notice

If you forget your password, your files cannot be recovered. We do not store passwords, keys, or any file data. This is not a bug — it's a security feature that ensures only you can access your encrypted files.

Why Use Local Encryption?

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you upload my files?

No. All encryption and decryption happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript and the Web Crypto API. Your files never leave your device, and we never see them.

Can I recover my password?

No. We don't store passwords or encryption keys anywhere. If you forget your password, your encrypted files cannot be recovered. This is by design to ensure maximum security.

Is this tool free?

Yes, completely free with no limits. We're a privacy-first tool that makes money through other means, not by selling your data or charging for basic security.

What is the .nutenc file format?

It's our custom format that wraps encrypted data with metadata (salt, IV, filename). Files encrypted here can only be decrypted on this page to ensure security and compatibility.

How strong is the encryption?

We use AES-256-GCM (Galois/Counter Mode), the same encryption standard used by governments and militaries worldwide. Your password is derived using PBKDF2 with 100,000 iterations.

Can I encrypt large files?

Yes, up to 200 MB per file. For larger files, consider splitting them or using desktop encryption software. Browser memory limits prevent processing extremely large files.

Does this work offline?

Yes! After your first visit, the page can work offline. However, encrypted files can always be decrypted even years later using this same page.
