obg - encrypt/decrypt files

encrypt or decrypt something with nothing or vice-versa

Installation:

bash cargo install obg

AES256-CBC Encryption or Decryption of files using other files as keys

For instance, any video, image, audio or any files binary or plaintext can be used to encrypt another file.

Example usage:

Let's download nothing.png and use that as raw-bytes "password" input in a PBKDF2 key-derivation thus generating a AES key to later encrypt/decrypt files.

Generating an AES-256-CBC key out of an image file of "nothing"

bash wget http://oceania.sh/nothing.png obg keygen --password ./nothing.png --salt "nihilism" --cycles 84000 -o key-made-of-nothing.yml

Encrypting a file

bash obg encrypt file --key-file key-made-of-nothing.yml nothing.png nothing-encrypted.png

Decrypting a file

bash obg encrypt file --key-file key-made-of-nothing.yml nothing-encrypted.png nothing.png

Generating an AES-256-CBC key out of textual password

bash obg keygen --password "here goes your password" --salt "here goes your salt" --randomize-iv --cycles 42000 -o key-made-of-typed-password.yml

From there the encryption/decryption works the same as above.

Pro Tips

Both --password or -salt arguments of obg keygen can be paths to files, but if the given path don't exist in the file-system the password or salt will be that path.
