Vault

Vault⁠ is a self-hosted project that allows you to store sensitive text in a secure way. It uses Argon2⁠ for password hashing and key derivation and encrypts the data symmetrically with AES-256, the user's password is not saved at all, only the encrypted data with the generated salt. I wouldn't recommend using it in a real production environment but it's useful for keeping your secrets (or diary) safe from the general public.

Getting Started

Docker

docker run -d --name vault -p 8080:8080 -v ./data:/documents -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro --restart unless-stopped darkceptor44/vault

      - PORT=8080  # optional unless using a different port
      - DOCKER=yes  # optional
      - DEBUG=yes  # if debug needed
    volumes:
      - ./data:/documents # where data will be stored
      - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro # for correct timezone when logging

Environment Variables

Disclaimer

• This project was made for personal use and learning purposes, there could be vulnerabilities.
• Since the user's password is not saved it is up to the user to choose a secure password and if anything happens (say it refuses to decrypt) the data is lost.
• This project was made mostly in a private self-hosted Git instance and that's why there are only a few commits.
