- Zero-knowledge architecture: all encryption/decryption client-side via Web Crypto API
- AES-GCM 256 for messages, files, and key wrapping; PBKDF2 for password-based key derivation
- Node.js/TypeScript backend: JWT auth with refresh rotation, argon2id passwords, TOTP 2FA
- PostgreSQL schema: encrypted blobs only, server never stores plaintext
- Real-time messaging via WebSocket relay (server routes ciphertext, cannot read it)
- Encrypted file upload/download with per-file keys wrapped by user master key
- React PWA frontend: Vite + Tailwind + service worker for offline support
- Docker Compose: postgres + backend + frontend + nginx with TLS
