how it works​

USB​

  • USB has two hidden files namely metadata and key
  • metadata stores the list of files that the key should affect
  • key has the secret key through which encryption and decryption occurs

Computer​

  • Backend script is responsible for managing and triggering operations whenever the usb is injected or ejected
  • when a new usb is inserted , the metadata and key are stored in a cache file and all the files that it affects are decrypted and unhidden
  • when the usb is ejected , all the files inside the cache are encrypted back and the cache is freed so that no one else can read the key and files
