I've not used it myself, but there's also CryFS [1]. It's file-level like EncFS or eCryptFS, but uses fixed-size and padded cypherfiles to avoid leaking details about your file structure. I'm not sure about Cryptomator, but with EncFS it would be relatively easy to infer that someone has, say, the Tor browser stored in it, by the size and shape of the encrypted files

- riedel 3y agoCool, I did not know it, and is a product from a master thesis at our university. Have to try it. People complain about speed in the past : https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23469401 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23469401 Is it usable?
- alwyn 3y agoI'm a fan of gocryptfs [1]/cppcryptfs (Windows implementation) [2], they also have a fairly unbiased comparison [3] with other solutions, including CryFS.

- 8fingerlouie 3y agoCryFS (and gocryptfs) both suffer from the same lack of support on iOS, which Cryptomator has, which is the reason i'm sticking with it. As for how it encrypts files, there is a description here : https://docs.cryptomator.org/en/1.5/security/architecture/#file-content-encryption https://docs.cryptomator.org/en/1.5/security/architecture/#f...
