This tool, Secrypt, does two things: Watch a quick demonstration on Youtube

Why would you want to do this?
More and more governments are writing laws to enforce suspects to give up their passwords. This would not be so bad, weren't it for the fact that they are suspects. They may not have done anything. So what if they forgot their password? Or store data that looks encrypted, but is simply random?

The law is already in effect in Great Britain. If you don't tell your password for anything they think is encrypted, you face up to 5 years of jail. Right now, Dutch lawmakers are looking to implement something similar.

That's why I made this tool. It generates passwords for random data (or data that otherwise looks encrypted), and can also be used to to protect real data by generating multiple passwords for one file. One of the passwords is the real one, others result in fake data.

What if the police thinks you have a second password? Simple: you give them another fake. There is no way for them to know how many password you've generated. Or perhaps you've already complied to the law by providing one.


So, what do you want to do?
Okay, let's dive a little deeper into how this works. Typically in a symmetric encryption scheme, we have three things: With the data and key you can generate the encryption. With the encryption and key you can generate the data. And with Secrypt, you can also generate the key using the original and the encryption.

Because the data is private, you'll want to delete it and store the encryption and key seperately.

Keep in mind that encryption + key = data.
Data is the decryption (because after using the key on the encryption, you can call it the decryption).
So to have multiple keys for one encryption, you will also have multiple versions of the data, and one of these versions is the original one. Therefore you need to tell the algorithm which decryptions you want the keys to have. One key will unlock the original data, the other keys will unlock whatever you want them to.

The encryption and the correct key are both the same length as the original data. If you generate another decryption which is shorter or longer than the data, it's trivial to see it's a fake. Why? If you give the encryption with a fake key to someone, they know the length of the encryption, and thus the length of the original data, and thus how long a key should be. This is why it's smart to make all decryptions the same length as the encryption, then all keys will have the same length and it's impossible to know (assuming that your decryptions make sense) whether any key is a fake or not.

Decrypt your file with a password
Or someone else's file, of course.

The encrypted or random data:


The key or password file:


(otherwise it will download as file)
If you download as file, you probably need to rename the file. If it should be an image, make the name end in .jpg, or whatever it originally was.

Generate a decryption for some file
Note that the file can technically be anything: random data, encrypted data, an unencrypted Word document, images...

The file you want a password for:


What text do you want it to decrypt to?


Encrypt a file and generate multiple passwords
Note: I cannot stand in for the safety of this tool for protecting real data; it has not been analysed by anyone besides myself. I believe it is fairly safe, albeit impractical with large amounts of data, but you still shouldn't ever trust a single person's opinion on cryptography. Doing crypto correctly is hard.

Perhaps it's an idea to encrypt your data with AES or something, then using the "Generate a password for a file that is not encrypted"-tool to obtain one or more fake passwords for it.

1. File or message to encrypt
If you want to encrypt a file:


If you want to encrypt a message:


2. Fake decryptions


3. Result
The download will be a zip file with the encryption, the correct key, and another key for every decryption you've added. You should extract the zip and store the encryption seperately from any keys (a good place for keys might be a usb-stick). You might also want to rename the files so that you know which is which.
