    Due to bike-induced concussions, I've been worried for a while about losing my memory and not being able to log back in. I combined shamir secret sharing (hashicorp vault's implementation) with age-encryption, and packaged it using WASM for a neat in-browser offline UX. The idea is that if something happens to me, my friends and family would help me get back access to the data that matters most to me. 5 out of 7 friends need to agree for the vault to unlock. Try out the demo in the website, it runs entirely in your browser!

    I wanted to show you something I was hacking on for the last few weeks. I tired of sharing screen via Google Meet with 1-hour limitation, with Zoom and 40-minute limitation, etc. With paid Slack subscription. And often times I just needed to screenshare with no audio. So I ended up with my own solution - no registration, low memory, low CPU, low tek 1 fps encrypted screen sharing. Currently sharing only the main screen (good for laptop users). It's very raw in terms of infrastructure, since I'm not counting bytes (yikes!), everything works on my own dedicated server. But the service itself…

    malai is a peer to peer network, and is a dead simple to share your local development HTTP server, without setting up tunnels, dealing with firewalls, or relying on cloud services. In malai 0.2.5, we have added TCP support, which means you can expose any TCP service to others using malai, without opening the TCP service related port to Internet. With malai installed on both ends, any TCP service can be securely tunneled over it. It can be used to secure your SSH service, or securely share your database server.

    Creator here. I was looking for something as simple as Backblaze Personal [1] but privacy focused and open source. This is my attempt to build that. Uses PyQt6 [2] for the GUI and Pyinstaller [3] for creating the platform specific binaries. The backup engine under the hood is Restic [4]. The server code is written in Laravel [5]. All the code is on GitHub [6]. I actually really like Backblaze (even use B2 for this offering behind the scenes) so this isn't meant to throw shade their way. Just wanted a private open source alternative. Something like Bitwarden but for backups. [1]…

    Retriever (https://retriever.corgea.io/), an open-source research project to help users receive secrets and sensitive information without needing a server in the middle.

    Finally open sourced an internal tool we've been using for managing secrets. It's similar to SOPS, but more opinionated, easier to configure/use correctly, and produces nicer git diffs. It also supports one-way encryption, so you don't have to know the private key to add secrets.

    Hi everyone! This is my first HN and I’m very new to the scene. My name is Min from Bangkok. At first, I just want to create a dead man's switch for personal use and for fun. then, I think about information that self destruct like a spy movie. after that, I try to come up with the better version of Privnote or Bitwarden with self-destruct and some kind of censoring or blocking download ability. Somehow, end up with this product. :O Flashpaper is for sending any information that would be burned after reading (with counting down timer like Mission Impossible movie ! or after 24 hrs max if not…

    Built an offline encryption tool for people who don't trust cloud services or hardware wallets. Paranoid Qrypto runs completely offline (air-gapped). You type your seed phrase on an offline device, and it encrypts it using Argon2id + AES-256-GCM. The encrypted file can be stored anywhere USB, cloud, printed as QR code without exposing your keys. Why this was build: Hardware wallets cost $100-200 and are single points of failure * Cloud solutions require trusting a third party * Paper backups have no protection if found Technical details: * Runs in browser with no server calls * All…
