Xecrets File Command Line cryptographic toolbox for Windows, macOS and Linux

Xecrets File Command Line is a file encryption cryptographic toolbox for Windows, macOS and Linux.

Released as Open Source under GPL, it's perfect for advanced users for desktop and scripted encryption, secure backups to the cloud without exposing passwords, computer to computer file transfer, encrypted file distribution to users who may open it with a desktop app and so much more! It supports both symmetric passwords as well as public key encryption.

It's 100% AxCrypt compatible, in fact it's based on the exact same code, but does not have a graphical user interface as it's been re-engineered into a pure command line utility.

With optional JSON messages and progress it can be integrated programmatically in a reliable way, using a soon to be released SDK or you can roll your own.

There is a companion desktop app for casual and non-technical users as well, that uses this command line for all cryptographic operations.

See the GitHub Repository and the Home Page for details!
