Create secret

How does it work?

Step 1

Enter a text that you want to share with someone, like a password or some other secret value.

Step 2

The text you provided is encrypted using AES with an encryption key that is generated in your browser (locally).

Step 3

The encrypted text will be posted to an API endpoint alongside the selected expiry duration.

Step 4

The encrypted value is stored in our database, and we provide you with an identifier, we cannot decrypt it because only you have the decryption key.

Step 5

We generate the URL (locally) to view the secret, the encryption key is appended after the #. Only the browser can see contents after the hashtag, it is never sent to our server.

Step 6

When the receiver uses the link, their browser will request the secret from our server, our server will then remove it, and it will get decrypted within the browser. Only the first one to click "View secret" can view it.
