  • Cryptomator – Encrypt files on your cloud storage

    > Cryptomator's technology meets the latest standards and encrypts both files and filenames with AES and 256 bit key length.

    I know you're advertising to slightly less technical users, but please provide some documentation explaining your choices! AES alone doesn't say anything about the mode of operation, which makes or breaks the scheme.

    From a little sleuthing, it seems likely that they're using GCM-SIV[1], which is a good choice.
