Deadbolt is a free open-source file/ folder encryption tool.

Installation

If you're running Mac OS, install deadbolt with Homebrew:

brew install --cask deadbolt

deadbolt simplifies encrypting and decrypting files. All you need is a password.

Select a file to encrypt, enter a password, and … that’s it. Decryption is just as easy.

You can download deadbolt for Mac OS, Windows, or Linux. Any encrypted file can be shared across these platforms.

Note: deadbolt can not encrypt directories. To encrypt a directory, compress it into a .zip (or any archive format) file before using deadbolt.
