The beta versions found in the Google Play Store are usually give surprising surprises for what can be found. Since, although it seems that apps do not tend to innovate in certain aspects, we can find some that can be very useful for our daily tasks.
This can happen with Dropbox or Google Drive, two storage spaces in the cloud where we have sensitive information and all kinds of files. To have a extra layer of encryption protection From that data in the cloud, we can access an app that is in beta called Cryptomator.
How to add a second layer of encryption to Dropbox or Google Drive
Cryptomator is a tool that adds a second layer of encryption to files stored in Google Drive or Dropbox. There's no reason why you can't do this in standard desktop software, but the Android app makes it easy to lock and access those files with a mobile interface.
This app provides transparent encryption from the client side for the files you have in the cloud. They can all be accessed from all your devices to protect your documents from unauthorized access.
Cryptomator encrypts the contents of files and names them using the key length 256 bit with AES. Make it easier to "break" that encryption, for which you have to choose a password and continue working on your files as if nothing happened. And one of its advantages is that it does not need configuration or an account for it to work.
This app is expected to offer more support for other storage services In the cloud, although like many used Google Drive or Dropbox, it is now a more than interesting app to add more security to those accounts.
