Show HN: Forced to Give Your Password?

> Set up multiple passwords for the same app.
That sounds interesting, but how does it actually work?
That sounds interesting, but how does it actually work?
Imagine a briefcase where different keys open different compartments. One key might show your grocery list, another shows your real important documents. If someone forces you to open it, you can give them a "fake" key that shows harmless stuff.
This is called "deniable encryption" - you can honestly say "there's nothing important here" when using the decoy password.
And it is impossible to understand whether any one of the compartment is a random content or an encrypted one.

I feel like this answer only explains the concept and not how it _actually_ works.
Is it an app? Is it a framework? How would it be used when one is being forced to open up their phone, does it only work within the app itself, or would it boot the phone into an alternate partition? Etc etc...
Also the website is full of AI generated images, buzzwords, and little to no substance.

All details are in the web page but if you want to get into technical details here I leave the link to the whitepaper;

xkcd/538 never gets old.
It got old and you are missing the whole point.
If someone will think exactly like your mindset, he will likely damage potential evidence, opportunities, and the case right from the start and loosing the whole position if it is the Veilith. This is highly sensitive technology—there's no room for jokes.

In countries like the US, UK, and Australia, refusing to provide passwords to law enforcement can result months in prison in certain cases.
I invented a solution called Veilith ( veilith.com ) addresses this critical vulnerability with perfect deniable encryption. It supports multiple passwords, each unlocking distinct blocks of encrypted data that are indistinguishable from random noise even to experts. And have a lot of different features to protect your intellectual properties.
In high-stakes situations, simply provide a decoy password and plausibly deny the existence of anything more.
Dive deeper by reading the whitepaper, exploring the open-source code, or asking me any questions you may have.
