EncFilex v1.1 () - layered file encryption (Base64 -> AES-256-GCM -> XChaCha20-Poly1305)
Project description
EncFilex (EFX) v1.1
🔒 EncFilex (EFX) is a modern file encryption system with double layers:
- Base64 Encoding
- AES-256-GCM
- XChaCha20-Poly1305
Designed so that any file (text, image, video, document) can be securely encrypted and only opened with the correct password.
✨ Features
- 🔐 AES-256-GCM for symmetric security
- ⚡ XChaCha20-Poly1305 for extra security & long nonce
- 📦 Supports large binary files (image, video, doc, etc.)
- 🛡️ Password-based key derivation using Argon2
- 🎯 Usable via Python API or Command Line (CLI)
📦 Installation
Install from PyPI:
pip install encfilex
🚀 Usage
1. API (in Python)
from EFX import encrypt_file, decrypt_file
# Encrypt
encrypt_file("secret.png", "secret.efx", "super-password")
# Decrypt
decrypt_file("secret.efx", "recovered.png", "super-password")
2. Command Line (CLI)
After installation, the encfilex command is available.
Encrypt file
efx encrypt secret.png secret.efx --password super-password
Decrypt file
efx decrypt secret.efx secret.png --password super-password
⚠️ Notes
- Don't forget to keep your password safe.
- If lost, files cannot be recovered (no backdoor).
- The size of the encrypted file can be about 30% larger than the original (due to metadata + Base64).
- Python 3.9+ is recommended.
