Unity is Strength - Collaboration is Key

CryptPad is the **zero knowledge** realtime collaborative editor.
|
|
|
|
|
Encryption carried out in your web browser protects the data from the server, the cloud
|
|
|
|
|
and the NSA. This project uses the [CKEditor] Visual Editor and the [ChainPad] realtime
|
|
|
|
|
engine. The secret key is stored in the URL [fragment identifier] which is never sent to
|
|
|
|
|
the server but is available to javascript so by sharing the URL, you give authorization
|
|
|
|
|
to others who want to participate.

To install:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
git clone <this repo>
|
|
|
|
|
cd cryptpad
|
|
|
|
|
npm install
|
|
|
|
|
npm install -g bower ## if necessary
|
|
|
|
|
bower install
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## copy config.js.dist to config.js
|
|
|
|
|
cp config.js.dist config.js
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## modify configuration to use your own mongodb instance
|
|
|
|
|
## for example aon the default mongodb port `mongodb://localhost:27017/demo_database`
|
|
|
|
|
$EDITOR config.js
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
node ./server.js
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
## Security
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CryptPad is *private* not *anonymous*. Privacy protects your data, anonymity protects you.
|
|
|
|
|
As such, it is possible for a collaborator on the pad to include some silly/ugly/nasty things
|
|
|
|
|
in a CryptPad such as an image which reveals your IP address when your browser automatically
|
|
|
|
|
loads it or a script which plays Rick Asleys's greatest hits. It is acceptable for anyone
|
|
|
|
|
who does not have the key to be able to change anything in the pad or add anything, even the
|
|
|
|
|
server.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The server does have a certain power, it can send you evil javascript which does the wrong
|
|
|
|
|
thing (leaks the key or the data back to the server or to someone else). This is however an
|
|
|
|
|
[active attack] which makes it detectable. The NSA really hates doing these because they might
|
|
|
|
|
get caught and laughed at and humiliated in front of the whole world (again). If you're making
|
|
|
|
|
the NSA mad enough for them to use an active attack against you, Great Success Highfive, now take
|
|
|
|
|
the battery out of your computer before it spawns Agent Smith.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Still there are other low-lives in the world so using CryptPad over HTTPS is probably a good idea.
