What is OpaqueFiles?

A free and open-source file encryption software for Linux, Windows and Mac that encrypts/decrypts files so they can be stored securely, utilizing compression (Zstd/gzip/LZMA2), Reed–Solomon Error Correction, encryption(ChaCha20/AES-GCM-SIV) and keys derived from the user's password with Argon2id.

Features:

  • Encryption: ChaCha20-Poly1305 (default), AES-GCM-SIV
  • Remember password: Password can be saved in ~/.config/OpaqueFiles/opaqueFiles.properties to avoid typing
  • Compression: None, Zstd (default), gzip, XZ
  • Reed–Solomon Error Correction
  • Argon2id key derivation
  • Verification: Checks your encrypted files for errors during encryption
  • Checking: Check your encrypted files for malicious manipulation
  • Scrubbing: Check your encrypted files for corruption, and fix the corruption
  • UNIX Pipes
  • Stress testing: Test CPU/Memory stabilty. Faster but not as reliable as Memtest
