An ultra-secure encrypted file vault with client-side encryption and Moving Target Defense rotation. - 3xpyth0n/leyzen-vault

So, this whole thing kicked off because I hit a wall with local storage - it just doesn’t grow with you forever, you know? Plus, putting all my eggs in the basket of other companies felt a bit risky with all the changing rules and government access stuff these days.

What I ended up with is pretty cool: a personal file vault where I’m in charge. It treats any outside storage like it can’t be trusted, and all the encryption happens right on my computer. I can even use cloud storage like S3 if I need to, but I never lose control of my own data.

Honestly, it just kinda grew on its own; I never set out to build a product. I’m mainly sharing it here to see how other folks deal with these kinds of choices.

    I dont want to dump on anyone, but this is v2.4.0 and v1.0.0 was last month…

    With 4 tickets…

    I’m also unsure that refering to zero knowledge architecture is the correct phrase here. Instead I think it should be zero trust in this context.

    But as other repos are French, perhaps the AI is from translations.

    In short - a good idea, but needs time - and clearer explanations of what’s going on

      Hey, thanks for the honest feedback, I really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts.

      Yeah, v1 was pretty rough, I won’t lie. It not even worked on a clean install. I was just starting to mess with GitHub back then, so my early work lacked proper tests, workflows, and a good release plan. That’s totally on me.

      I rushed v2 out because I didn’t want to keep building on shaky ground. Since then, I’ve really focused on making things stable: adding pre-commit checks, setting up CI workflows, and testing installs on fresh VMs so i know it actually works for other people, not just on my pc.

      You’re also right about the words I’m using. Zero trust fits way better than zero knowledge (I literally translated from french words 😅), and I need to be much clearer and more exact about that in the docs.

      Regarding issues, I’m still hoping more people will check it out and give feedback. But honestly, I’m always happy to chat and answer questions when they come up, that’s exactly what I’m hoping to get more of.
