CLAVEM - Clavem — Encrypt files and folders with password + keyfile

by•
Clavem encrypts files and folders locally using password-based encryption with optional content-derived keyfile support. It minimizes metadata exposure, does not reveal authentication methods, and maintains backward-compatible encrypted containers. No cloud, no lock-in — full control and independent access over time.

Hi everyone, I built Clavem to solve a simple problem: encrypt files securely without relying on cloud storage or complex setups. Clavem is a local encryption tool that: always requires a password supports an optional keyfile based on file content (not filename or path) doesn’t reveal whether a keyfile was used protects metadata like filenames in newer container versions Everything happens locally — no uploads, no lock-in. I tried to keep it simple, transparent, and predictable, while still paying attention to things like memory handling and long-term compatibility of encrypted files. I’d really appreciate feedback, especially on: usability vs security balance real-world use cases anything that feels unclear or missing Thanks for taking a look .
