Cybersecurity

DotBGE

TL;DR

A local-first encryption tool for files that keeps your data off the cloud and under your own control.

Who is this actually for?

Privacy-obsessed developers and iOS power users who want to script their own security workflows without trusting third-party servers.

The Good

  • Local-first means zero reliance on some startup's shaky server infrastructure or data breaches.
  • CLI and agent support makes it actually useful for automation rather than just being another bloated mobile app.

The Catch (Potential Downsides)

Key management is entirely on you; if you lose your device or forget your access, there is no support team to bail you out. It might be overkill for anyone who isn't already comfortable with terminal commands.
