Inspiration

• Easy to visualise encryption and show it to users.

What it does

• Encrypts files,
• Shares files
• Uses state-of-the-art PKI and AES encryption

How we built it

• Android studio front end
• Ruby on Rails backend and end to end encryption crypto libraries.

Challenges we ran into

• Sharing the secret key to the two devices and decrypting it.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

• Fully working backend
• Secure communication between backend and clients
• Learning about PKI
• Encrypting files
• Fully completed aesthetically pleasing mockup app

What we learned

• Android programming
• Nuances of java and encryption
• PKI and AES encryption

What's next for Hackdayii

• Change the decryption scheme.
• Move to a better key sharing mechanism

Built With

• java
• ruby
