24 alternatives to HSM-backed PII storage directly from the front end
Today we are releasing Data Vault, which allows the safe and compliant storage of sensitive user data directly from the frontend. Data Vault takes care of data localization and protection transparently, without having to build ad-hoc infrastructure to handle encryption or key management and rotation

Hi HN, I’m Daniel. I built Trust Vault. It’s a desktop open source app for protecting sensitive files using passwords, 256-bit master tokens, Shamir’s Secret Sharing, and HMAC integrity verification. We also built an Obsidian plugin. I’d appreciate feedback on the security model, UX, and potential use cases.

Hi HN, I'm Adriano, one of the makers of Vaultrice. I'm excited (and a little nervous!) to share what we've been building. For years, we found ourselves in a frustrating loop: whenever we needed a simple real-time feature—like a "who's online" list, a collaborative app, or just sharing state between a marketing site and our main app — we'd end up spending days setting up the same stack or discarded to do it. Setting it up, it always involved wiring together a database, a WebSocket server, an API, and managing the connection state. It felt like massive overkill for what we were trying to…

The README has a full security model breakdown if you want to get adversarial.
