Data Padlock Firefox

Data Padlock

Secure your files & messages using encryption!

Features & Capabilities

Data Padlock is a browser-based encryption add-on that allows users to preserve their privacy and security by encrypting files and messages with a password. The add-on uses the Advanced Encryption Standard (the same standard used by the US government), which provides a high level of security.

This powerful add-on can be used for a variety of purposes, like sharing messages or files over an unencrypted network or securing files you store in the cloud.

The process is simple! Just add select the file or type the message that you want to encrypt, enter a strong password and Data Padlock will generate an encrypted file that can be shared or saved. To access the file or message later, just select the encrypted file and enter the password to unlock it. It's that easy!

The encryption is performed entirely using the browser's built-in cryptography libraries, so your information isn't sent over the internet and no one involved with the Data Padlock project can see what you're encrypting.

Maintain your privacy with Data Padlock!

Is Data Padlock Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Data Padlock requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details
  • Medium Allows management of download operations but generally doesn't severely affect security unless misused.
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Data Padlock is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
