How does this stack up to Veracrypt though? I don’t understand enough about cryptography to make sense of this (despite the lack of a formal audit though, I’ve heard enough good things about the validity and trustworthiness of Cryptomator’s encryption that I’ve put my faith in it).
The fact that Veracrypt volumes can be encrypted with so many different algorithms (AES, Serpent, Twofish, Camellia, Kuznyechik, and ten different combinations of these) plus the fact that you can further customize the encryption by moving your mouse randomly within the Volume Creation Wizard for as long as you want (significantly increasing the cryptographic strength of the encryption keys) makes me feel as if Veracrypt must be far more secure than Cryptomator. I’ve never felt completely comfortable with the fact that there’s so little customization available with Cryptomator - what you see is what you get.
I want to know how valid these concerns are though. Is the encryption algorithm used by Cryptomator “enough”? Is it substantially weaker than the encryption you can get with Veracrypt? This is what I’m not sure about. I’ve heard that with the advances currently being made in computing, many of the encryption algorithms that are considered strong now may not be considered strong in the near future, and this is also a big concern of mine.
