Security tools for people who don't like security tools

Shroud Labs

Small tools. Sharp edges.

The server never sees your secrets.

Cryptography happens in your browser.

We publish every algorithm we use.

No lock-in. No black boxes. No "just trust us".

The best security is security people actually use

"Never share passwords" sounds great until your coworker needs access in 5 minutes and you're on a plane. So you text it. Dead Drop lets you share once, securely, then it's gone.

"Store keys in a hardware vault" is ideal until you lose it, forget to back it up, or can't afford one. Runekey regenerates your keys from memory. Nothing to lose.

"Don't put sensitive files in the cloud" ignores reality. You will. Everyone does. CipherStash encrypts before upload. Use the cloud safely.

Perfect security with 30% compliance loses to good security with 95% compliance.
We build for how people actually work.

Dead Drop

Self-destructing secrets. Client-side AES-GCM. We never see plaintext.

Runekey

Deterministic keys from a passphrase. Same input, same SSH/GPG/WireGuard key. Every time.

CipherStash

Encrypt files in your browser. Back up to your own Google Drive.

Artifact Warden

Pull-through proxy with ACL rules. Block by package, version, or CVE.

Less trust. Fewer secrets. Smaller blast radius.
