This git project constitutes a "File Cloaking Utility" that provides password-based security of a single file or a single file system archive file (E.g. .tar.gz). The utility is probably most useful in the following situations:

* Storing backups of sensitive information on the Internet
* Transporting sensitive information electronically (E.g. email) or manually (E.g. using a flash drive)

This project is already proven running on an Intel/AMD environment (Biostar Celeron CPU motherboard) and the Raspberry Pi 2 (ARM 32-bit processor).

This project is based on libgcrypt, using:
The source code is based on libgcrypt (GnuPG cryptography), using:
* Password-based Key Derivation Function version 2 (PBKDF2)
* AES data cryptography in Cipher-Block Chaining (CBC) mode
* Hash-based Message Authentication Code (HMAC) function SHA512
