Portable Secret – Open-Source HTML files that self-decrypt offline
Hey HN, We've decided to open-source our Portable Secret. It's a free tool that generates self-contained HTML files which decrypt locally in your browser. Check it out at https://alcazarsec.github.io/portable-secret/.

I really liked the idea and wanted to improve the security of the KDF and the UX. I hope he's honored that so many people have…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years.
