Tibis is a secure storage manager
Project description
Tibis
Tibis (Thot the IBIS) is a tool to help manage encrypted directories (named data container here)
Name is inspired by the Egyptian god of writers and protector of knowledge
TLDR; Setup
pip install tibis
TLDR; Usage
Customise the data location path
Default config is set to be at :
~/.config/tibis/config.yml
You HAVE TO edit the storage_path to something more secure than /tmp :)
Create a new data container
tibis create <name>
Thot will ask you a passphrase, choose a good one !
List data containers
tibis list
Mount a data container
tibis unlock <name> <destination path>
Thot will ask your passphrase.
Lock a data container
tibis lock <name>
Thot will not ask your passphrase.. because it's PGP Public key.
Remove an entry
tibis delete <name>
Thot will ask you a confirmation, take care !
Why ?
Because we have to handle with sensitive files, and store them securly can be boring
How ?
Tibis is a kind of python wrapper on pgp keys and gzip files.
Yes, nothing more.
Why do we have to set passphrase ?
Security is a matter of trust, if you don't trust your laptop enough to store sensitive data, why leave the keys in it ?
By using a passphrase, access to the data needs : something you have ( data / key ) and something you know ( passphrase )
