...It aims to support all major operating systems and is written in pure Go. Sensitive data is encrypted and authenticated in memory with XSalsa20Poly1305. The scheme used also defends against cold-boot attacks. Memory allocation bypasses the language runtime by using system calls to query the kernel for resources directly. This avoids interference from the garbage collector. Buffers that store plaintext data are fortified with guard pages and canary values to detect spurious accesses and overflows. The effort is taken to prevent sensitive data from touching the disk.

Tomb is a minimalistic command-line tool for creating and managing encrypted “tombs,” which are files that act as mountable, private storage vaults. Under the hood it uses Linux dm-crypt with LUKS for strong, disk-level encryption, and separates the key material from the vault itself to improve security workflows. Keys can be protected with passphrases and even hidden via steganography inside innocuous files, giving you options for concealment and off-device storage. The interface is...
