VaultBook Security Spotlight: Password-Protected Entries with AES-GCM

When handling sensitive information, security isn’t optional—it’s essential. That’s why VaultBook now gives you the ability to protect individual entries with a password, secured using modern AES-GCM encryption. This ensures that even inside your personal vault, you have control over which entries are visible and when.

Why This Matters

Many knowledge tools store data in the cloud, creating risks for sensitive material. VaultBook is different: it is completely local, runs without an internet connection, and never uploads your information to external servers. With the new password protection option, you gain an extra defense layer directly within your vault.

Use Cases Where Security Counts

• HIPAA Compliance: Healthcare professionals can keep patient notes, care instructions, or sensitive records encrypted and accessible only with a password—ensuring compliance and reducing liability.
• PII (Personally Identifiable Information): Businesses and individuals can store tax records, IDs, or client files without risking accidental exposure or unauthorized access.
• Workplace Knowledge: Teams handling financial data, HR documents, or internal policies can selectively encrypt critical entries to protect them from casual viewing.
• Offline & Secure: VaultBook operates fully offline. No cloud, no syncing, no leaks. All encryption and password validation happen right on your device.

How It Works

When you check the “Protect with password” box and set a password, VaultBook uses AES-GCM—an advanced cryptographic standard trusted in modern security systems—to encrypt your entry. The password is never stored. Only you can unlock and view the entry when needed.

The Result

With password-protected entries, VaultBook becomes the ideal choice for professionals and organizations that need privacy, compliance, and total control. Whether you’re a doctor safeguarding patient notes, a lawyer handling confidential cases, or an individual protecting your financial data, VaultBook ensures your information stays where it belongs—with you.

Secure. Local. Private. VaultBook is built for trust.
