Lyra is a lightweight and fast encryption tool that makes protecting your sensitive files easy.
- Simple command line encryption and decryption.
- Encrypting is as easy as entering:
lyra encrypt fileand to decrypting is just as simple:lyra decrypt file
- Encrypting is as easy as entering:
- No need to worry about complex cipher options and configurations.
- Lyra uses a single strong time tested cipher to protect your data. Your data is encrypted with AES-256-GCM which simultaneously provides data confidentiality, authenticity and integrity (see authenticated encryption).
- Values that need to be unique and random (ex: salt) are generated via a cryptographically secure pseudo random number generator.
- Strong GPU and ASIC resistant KDF being used to protect your passphrase.
- Lyra uses argon2 to make dictionary attacks and brute force guessing even harder.
- Generate strong memorable passphrases via the diceware method.
- Go 1.9 and above
- Go Dep for dependency management.
- gware for diceware passphrase generation.
- golang.org/x/crypto for argon2 and passphrase terminal.
- memguard for handling keys and plaintext secrurely in memory.
- Signed binaries available for windows, linux and macOs available here.
- Simply
mvthe binary to your$PATH
