...The encrypted data is then stored in SharedPreferences. Since Conceal itself stores its encryption key in SharedPreferences, it follows that if the device is rooted (or if an attacker can somehow access the filesystem), the key can be obtained and the stored data can be decrypted. Therefore, on such a device, the concealed encryption is only an obscurity. On API level 23+ the key is stored in the Android Keystore, which makes the key non-exportable and therefore makes the entire process more secure. Follow best practices and do not store user credentials on a device. ...

...The following filesystems are supported: - Ext2/3/4, - NTFS, - XFS, - ReiserFSv3/4, - FAT12/16/32, - MinixFS1/2, - JFS, - HFS/HFS+, - OCFS. The following wiping methods are supported: Gutmann-like, random, Schneier, DoD. Additionally, WipeFreeSpace can finalize wiping the filesystem by writing blocks of zeros, which is friendly for sparse files, virtual systems and other places where zeroed-out space is not physically allocated. See the project homepage https://wipefreespace.sourceforge.io and the project Wiki in the menu above. To prevent clear-text data from being left on the drive in the first place, you can use LibSecRm (https://libsecrm.sourceforge.io), which wipes the data on-the-fly.

tool collection to manage files and stuffs on a filesystem

TSEFS is an encrypting filesystem.

A plattform independent encryption-tool with a simple user interface (swing/java). It uses 'Password Based Encryption' (PBE) to encrypt and/or decrpyt files on the filesystem. Encryted files will also be compressed using the zip-format.

The end goal of the FreeMess Project is to produce a cryptographically secure, pseudonymous, cross-platform peer-to-peer Instant Messenger service, piggybacking on FreeNet (http://freenet.sourceforge.net) as a distributed filesystem to hold user data.
