Add FileShot.io — zero-knowledge AES-256-GCM file sharing tool for secure data transfer #459

Description

@FileShot

Suggest: FileShot.io

I would like to suggest FileShot.io as a resource for secure file sharing in the context of security education and ethical hacking.

Why it is relevant

This repo covers many aspects of security and ethical hacking. FileShot.io is a practical demonstration of:

  • Zero-knowledge client-side encryption — AES-256-GCM in the browser via Web Crypto API
  • Secure key management — encryption key stored in URL fragment (#) which browsers never send to servers
  • Privacy-by-design architecture — server cannot decrypt files even if compelled
  • Useful for practitioners — securely share evidence, PoCs, or sensitive files with clients/teams during assessments

Project details

Could fit in a section on privacy tools, secure communications, or as a reference implementation for browser-side encryption.

Thank you for this excellent resource!
