tiny-encrypt-rs

Important

To use tiny-encrypt, a Yubikey(https://www.yubico.com/products/) or MacBook with Secure Enclave get the best security effect, the key MUST support PIV or OpenPGP.

Tiny Encrypt written in Rust Programming Language

Specification: Tiny Encrypt Spec V1.1

Tiny encrypt rs is a Rust implementation of Tiny encrypt java https://git.hatter.ink/hatter/tiny-encrypt-java
Tiny encrypt spec see: https://github.com/OpenWebStandard/tiny-encrypt-format-spec

Repository address: https://git.hatter.ink/hatter/tiny-encrypt-rs mirror https://github.com/jht5945/tiny-encrypt-rs

Set default encryption algorithm:

export TINY_ENCRYPT_DEFAULT_ALGORITHM='AES' # or CHACHA20

Compile only encrypt:

cargo build --release --no-default-features

Install from git:

cargo install --git https://git.hatter.ink/hatter/tiny-encrypt-rs.git --features full-features

Edit encrypted file:

tiny-encrypt decrypt --edit-file sample.txt.tinyenc 

Read environment EDITOR or SECURE_EDITOR to edit file, SECURE_EDITOR write encrypted file to temp file.

Secure editor command format:

$SECURE_EDITOR <temp-file-name> "aes-256-gcm" <temp-key-hex> <temp-nonce-hex>

Encrypt config ~/.tinyencrypt/config-rs.json:

{
  "environment": {
    "TINY_ENCRYPT_DEFAULT_ALGORITHM": "AES or CHACHA20"
  },
  "namespaces": {
    "name": "/Users/example/.name"
  },
  "envelops": [
    {
      "type": "pgp-rsa",
      "kid": "KID-1",
      "desc": "this is key 001",
      "publicPart": "----- BEGIN PUBLIC KEY ..."
    },
    {
      "type": "piv-p256",
      "kid": "KID-2",
      "desc": "this is key 002",
      "publicPart": "04..."
    }
  ],
  "profiles": {
    "default": [
      "KID-1",
      "KID-2"
    ],
    "l2,leve2": [
      "KID-2"
    ]
  }
}

Kyber1024 usage: Generate static-kyber1024 keypair:

$ tiny-encrypt -K -a kyber1024 -n keyname
[OK   ] Keychain name: keyname
[OK   ] Public key   : a731b5032194c3d2ad01f36d64e859ca9738595c21aa19c852dac22f4...
[INFO ] Config envelop:
{
  "type": "static-kyber1024",
  "sid": "keyname",
  "kid": "keychain:a731b5032194c3d2ad01f36d64e859ca9738595c21aa19c852dac22f411036c7",
  "desc": "Keychain static",
  "args": [
    "keychain::tiny-encrypt:keyname"
  ],
  "publicPart": "a731b5032194c3d2ad01f36d64e859ca9738595c21aa19c852dac22f411036c..."
}

Then write file ~/.tinyencrypt/config-rs.json.

Last, config key id to profile.

                      Shared Secret = kP = kdG

                      Store Q, Encrypt using derived key from Shared Secret


                      Send Q to Smart Card
