CryFS is described as 'Encrypts your files, so you can safely store them anywhere. It works well together with cloud services like Dropbox, iCloud, OneDrive and others' and is an app in the security & privacy category. There are more than 10 alternatives to CryFS for a variety of platforms, including Windows, Linux, Mac, Android and Android Tablet apps. The best CryFS alternative is VeraCrypt, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like CryFS are TrueCrypt, LUKS, DroidFS and FileCryptor.
Ensure your data's security by encrypting entire partitions, storage devices, or system drives with VeraCrypt. Benefit from transparent and automatic real-time encryption, hardware acceleration on modern processors, and robust security algorithms that are resistant to brute-force attacks.
[TrueCrypt is not exactly "Open Source", but the source is available. See the reviews to get more information.]
LUKS is the standard for Linux hard disk encryption. By providing a standard on-disk-format, it does not only facilitate compatibility among distributions, but also provides secure management of multiple user passwords.
DroidFS is an alternative way to use encrypted overlay filesystems on Android that uses its own internal file explorer instead of mounting virtual volumes. It currently only works with gocryptfs but support for CryFS could be added in the future.
A simple right-click, you can encrypt files in seconds - without any prior technical knowledge.
Welcome to ZenCrypt. With this app, you can safely encrypt files, using a secure and efficient library.
EncFS provides an encrypted filesystem in user-space. It runs without any special permissions and uses the FUSE library and Linux kernel module to provide the filesystem interface. You can find links to source and binary releases below.
gocryptfs uses file-based encryption that is implemented as a mountable FUSE filesystem. Each file in gocryptfs is stored one corresponding encrypted file on the hard disk. The screenshot below shows a mounted gocryptfs filesystem (left) and the encrypted files (right).
This app eases the use of mounting (loading) encrypted partitions (also called Volumes), a disk drive may consist of several of those areas, usually represented by a drive letter.
