Boxcryptor vs3/25/2023 ![]() ![]() They had answers like: Yep, it is secure, but what about the block chiphers? what about the Initianilation Vectors? Is the private key the same or different? P.S.2 Also, I saw a couple of good questions in the security.stackexchange about a double encryption, but all were quite general. If someone knows about it, just edit the the question to provide more information about that. I dont know what chipher block FileVault 2 uses. So, as you imagine, the question is about:Ī double AES encryption with different keys and I think with different When the User turns on the Mac again, and FileVault 2 decrypts all the disk files, Is it possible to harm the already encrypted BoxCryptor file textfile.txt which is located in the "Dropbox" folder ? So, it encrypts again theĪlready encypted file: textfile.txt from the BoxCryptor. FileVault 2: Encrypt again all the files.User: Open the Boxcryptor and encrypt a file: textfile.txt on the "Dropbox" folder.User: Turn on the Mac and login into his account.(correct me if I am wrong about that by the way).Īlso, both of them have a different public and private keys due to the fact the "initialized passwords" were completely different. So, the user asks to decrypt it a file and the files are not auto-decrypted while the system is up like the FileVault2 ![]() Also, BoxCryptor decrypt and encrypt on user demand. Assuming that someone has a Mac and uses FileVault 2 FDE (256-bit AES key) and uses the BoxCryptor (256-bit AES key) for the clouds like Dropbox/GDrive/etc and or some other folders.įileVault 2 uses AES with 256-bit keys and FileVault 2 encrypt the FDE while the system is halted.īoxCryptor uses AES with 256-bit key and from a search on the internet it uses CBC as block chipher. ![]()
