Timeline (last 90 days)
PentaCore uses SQLCipher for encryption at rest and enables secure_delete and WAL cleanup after purging.
PentaCore's SQLCipher key is compiled into the binary, so it protects the file only from someone who has just the file, not from someone who has the binary or source code.
Signal's local database is encrypted by default using SQLCipher.
SQLCipher is an open-source library that implements AES-256 encryption on top of SQLite.
SQLCipher protects data confidentiality but does not directly provide tamper-resistance (integrity) protection.
