Sigil 앱 대상 Android 설명
Sigil is an open-source, advanced encryption utility built for defense-in-depth and memory safety. Unlike standard tools that rely on a single algorithm, Sigil employs a multi-layered, configurable architecture to ensure your data remains secure against sophisticated cryptanalysis.
The application operates entirely offline, performing all cryptographic operations locally on your device with a modern Material 3 interface that balances high-level security with usability.
Core Security Features
- Encryption Profiles: Customize your security posture. Switch between "Standard AES-GCM" (Raw mode) for compatibility with external tools, or the "Sigil Chain" for maximum defense.
- Multi-Layer Cascade: The default Sigil Chain wraps your data in a hybrid cascade of XChaCha20-Poly1305 + Serpent-CBC + Twofish-CBC + AES-256-GCM. This defense-in-depth approach ensures that even if one algorithm is compromised, your data remains protected by independent layers.
- Zero-Knowledge Auth: Secure the app with a numeric PIN or a strong alphanumeric Password. Credentials are hashed using Salted Argon2id and never stored in a reversible format.
- Hardware-Backed Vault: When supported by the device, master keys are generated and stored in the Android Keystore (or StrongBox). Saved encryption passwords never touch the disk in plaintext.
- Memory Hygiene: Sensitive data buffers are zeroed where possible after use to reduce exposure to memory dumps.
Privacy & System Hardening
- Screen Security: Prevents screenshots and hides app content in the "Recent Apps" overview using
FLAG_SECURE, protecting against visual snooping and malicious screen recorders. - Clipboard Protection: Automatic wipe timers and Android 13+ sensitive content flags prevent clipboard managers from retaining your decrypted data.
- Offline-Only: Sigil does not request the INTERNET permission. It tracks no analytics, collects no telemetry, and stores no data on external servers.
Advanced User Toolkit
- Secure Keystore: Save, view, and manage encryption keys using the hardware-backed vault.
- Custom Encryption Control: Full manual control over encryption chains. Build your own cascade from 18 algorithms, reorder layers, and toggle ZLib compression.
- System Console: Real-time logging of the encryption process, providing precise timing metrics and error diagnostics.
- Advanced Theming: Material You Dynamic Colors, Dark/Light modes, and a custom HSV color engine.
Technical Specifications
- Key Derivation: Argon2id (Configurable up to 256MB RAM) + SHA-512 pre-hashing.
- Supported Algorithms: AES-256-GCM, AES-256-CBC, ChaCha20-Poly1305, XChaCha20-Poly1305, ARIA-256-GCM, Twofish, Serpent, Camellia, CAST6, RC6, SM4, GOST, SEED, Blowfish, IDEA, CAST5, TEA, and XTEA.
