Cryptography Transparency

Where: Settings → About → Cryptography Transparency

This page shows the encryption methods used by DavianVault in plain language:

Encryption at rest:

  • AES-256-GCM encrypts all vault data
  • Each encryption uses a unique random IV (initialization vector)
  • GCM provides both confidentiality and integrity checks

Key derivation:

  • Your master password is processed with Argon2id (64MB memory-hard, 3 iterations)
  • Derived keys are used to encrypt and unlock the vault key
  • Keys are stored only in your platform's secure storage

Zero-knowledge design:

  • The app never stores your master password
  • Decryption happens only in memory on your device
  • The vault stays encrypted when locked or in the background

Local-First Promise

Where: Settings → About → Local-First Promise

This page explains DavianVault's commitment to keeping your data on your device:

What never leaves unencrypted:

  • Passwords, usernames, notes, and attachments
  • TOTP secrets
  • Custom fields and vault organization

When data may leave the device:

  • Optional cloud sync uploads encrypted vault data only
  • No application crash/diagnostic logs are stored on your device
  • Security Audit Log stores only vault security events

Your control:

  • You can disable cloud sync at any time
  • Local vault can be deleted instantly from settings
  • Auto-lock prevents access when you step away
