Text & File Encryptor

Password-based AES-256-GCM encryption for text and files — keys are derived with PBKDF2 and everything runs in your browser via the Web Crypto API.

Drop a file to encrypt
or click to browse (any type, any size)
Files never leave your browser

Decrypt mode expects a .enc file produced by this tool.

100% local. Encryption and decryption happen entirely on your device. Your password is never stored or sent anywhere, and the key is derived fresh each time with PBKDF2 (150,000 iterations, SHA-256) using a random salt. AES-256-GCM also authenticates the data, so a wrong password or tampered ciphertext fails safely. There is no recovery — if you lose the password, the data is unrecoverable.
