s3ncrypted_proxy v1.1.0

About

S3ncrypted Proxy was created to make securely sharing Virtual Box images easy but will work with any type of file!

Quick Start

Generate yourself a strong password/key and put into a file:

umask 077 # the passphrase file will have perms 700 openssl rand -base64 12 > .gpg_passphrase

Use this to encrypt your box file:

gpg -c --passphrase-file .gpg_passphrase <file>

Future versions will allow you to upload the file with curl. For now, use the S3 management GUI to upload the gpg encrypted .gpg.

Get the size of the orginal file:

wc -c <file>

Got into the properties of the uploaded gpg file in S3. Add the following meta data:

key: x-amz-meta-gpg-content-length value :

Click save.

Create a config.json file in the S3Encrypted Proxy dir:

{ "aws_key": "<your key>", "aws_secret": "<you secret>", "gpg_passphrase_file" : "./.gpg_passphrase" }

Start S3ncrypted Proxy:

node s3ncrypted_proxy

Now point vagrant, or whatever to http://localhost:8000/bucket/object. If the object ends in .gpg it will automatically decrypted on the fly as it downloads!
