Vaultine is a robust, cross-platform application designed to secure, hide, and encrypt your most sensitive files, photos, and documents. It offers military-grade AES-256-GCM encryption, ensuring that your data remains strictly for your eyes only. Unlike many cloud-based solutions, Vaultine operates on a true zero-knowledge principle: all encryption and decryption processes occur locally on your device, and your cryptographic keys never leave your system. This means no account is needed, and your privacy is guaranteed by mathematics, not by trust in a third-party server.
The application supports a wide range of file types and is available across major operating systems, including iPhone, Mac, Android, and Windows, allowing for a consistent and secure experience regardless of your device. Key features include:
- True AES-256 Encryption: Protects files, folders, photos, and documents with industry-standard encryption.
- Split & Randomized Encryption: Advanced techniques fragment and encrypt files into indecipherable chunks, enhancing security even if raw storage is compromised.
- True Zero-Knowledge: All encryption is local, and keys remain on your device, ensuring ultimate privacy.
- Dual Lock Mechanisms: Choose between a Tactical 5x5 Pattern or a Secure 6-Digit PIN for access.
- Secure Internal Viewer: View PDFs, photos, and videos directly within the encrypted vault without extracting them.
- Bulk File Operations & Folder Support: Efficiently import, export, and organize large amounts of data with nested folders.
- Stealth Auto-Lock: Automatically locks your vault and wipes cryptographic keys from memory when the app is minimized.
- One-Click Panic Button: Instantly and permanently wipes all local vault data in emergencies.
- Fail-Safe Recovery: Recover your vault using a cryptographically generated 12-word seed phrase.
- Data Resilience & Repair: A self-healing tool scans for and recovers orphaned or corrupted encrypted files.
- Tracker-Free Privacy: No third-party trackers, ads, or data harvesting.
For users requiring enhanced security and organization, Vaultine Pro offers additional features such as:
- Multiple Vaults: Create independent vaults for different categories of sensitive data.
- Decoy Vault: Open a harmless alternate space with a secondary pattern/PIN for plausible deniability.
- Duress Vault: Present a fake vault while sensitive vaults are automatically wiped in the background during critical situations.
- Encrypted Cloud Sync: Securely back up encrypted files and folders via Dropbox, maintaining 100% protection in transit and at rest.
- Custom Recovery Phrases: Create your own memorable recovery phrase for ultimate control.
Vaultine is ideal for anyone looking to safeguard personal photos, confidential documents, financial records, or any other sensitive information from unauthorized access. It offers a free tier with one vault and up to 10 files, with Vaultine Pro unlocking unlimited capabilities.
