Is there a tool to real-time encrypt folders?
I'm looking for a veracrypt/truecrypt equivalent but at the folder-level and dynamic sizing
Something like a tool which could encrypt folders in real-time and then be able to lock it up. Truecrypt expects me to provide a size for it, I'd like something more dynamically sizeable based on the files I store in it.
Even just a tool that encrypts files written into it and converts them to other files works with me
You're viewing a single thread.
I use Cryptomator. Does exactly what you describe.
Just be aware you can lose your data. It is really bad with long file names and folders with a large number of files, there are multiple reports online about people losing their data. I personally have experienced this with large file names and once an entire vault that suddenly couldn't be open.
I'm pretty sure most of the reports online is rooted back to user error.
That doesn't help the people who lost data.
And the reports are common enough that it suggests cryptomator should consider making some interface changes.
I'm just saying it's not going to randomly brick your data. Just be cautious when performing tasks.
That's fair. But I'd still be really wary of something with a reputation for eating data just because a user looked at it funny.
