🛡️ Security

AroCrypt uses industry-standard algorithms:

• AES-GCM

  • AES-256-GCM
  • AES-192-GCM
  • AES-128-GCM

• AES-CBC

  • AES-256-CBC
  • AES-192-CBC
  • AES-128-CBC

• AES-CTR

  • AES-256-CTR
  • AES-192-CTR
  • AES-128-CTR

Includes key and IV randomization and HMAC-based integrity checks. GCM uses its own authentication tag to prevent tampering.

Your encryption keys are never uploaded, logged, or stored anywhere.

🧪 Dev Notes

• Built with Electron.js, powered by Node.js and React.js.
• Written entirely in TypeScript.
• Encryption logic is fully custom using native Node.js crypto APIs.
• Cross-platform architecture for Windows, Linux, and macOS.
