features
- self-contained executables: each encrypted file is a complete executable, containing a copy of binkey for self-extraction.
- passphrase protection: secures files with aes-256 encryption, unlocked only with a user-defined passphrase.
- delimiter-driven encryption: utilizes unique delimiters to identify encrypted data segments within the binary.
how it works
binkey employs base64 encoding and aes-256 encryption for securing files. each encrypted file is encapsulated between unique header and footer delimiters, marking the encrypted data segment within the binary.
encryption
to encrypt a file:
binkey file [outfile] -p <passphrase>
decryption
running the encrypted file prompts for the passphrase, allowing for decryption and extraction of the original content without needing an external binkey installation.
build it
maybe upx or use some other packer to reduce the footprint even smaller. currently sitting around 1mb.
