About the Encrypt/Decrypt Tool
This local-only tool allows you to encrypt and decrypt sensitive text or files using strong cryptography
— directly in your browser, without any data ever leaving your device.
It’s designed for safe use on public Wi-Fi networks (coffee shops, hotels, airports) where you may not
trust the network but still need to exchange confidential messages or protect sensitive documents.
Privacy First: This tool operates entirely offline using the browser’s native
Web Crypto API
. It uses AES-256-GCM with PBKDF2 (SHA-256) key derivation.
How to Use It
- Select whether you want to encrypt or decrypt.
- Enter your text or upload a file.
- Provide a strong passphrase (or generate one).
- Click “Process” and copy or download the result.
- Use the exact same passphrase to decrypt.
Best Practices
- Always use long, random passphrases. The tool can generate one for you.
- Never reuse encryption passphrases across different purposes or people.
- Store encrypted files securely, and share passphrases through trusted channels only.
- If you’re unsure about a result, test decryption before deleting originals.
