Security Settings

COO Studio is built with a privacy-first architecture. All your data is encrypted and stored locally on your computer.

Auto-Lock Timer

To protect your data on an unattended computer, COO Studio includes an auto-lock feature. You can configure the inactivity period in Settings > Security.

  • Function: The application will automatically lock after the specified period of inactivity.
  • Unlocking: You will need to re-enter your master passphrase to unlock the application and access your data.
  • Options: You can set the timer from 5 minutes to 24 hours.

Data Encryption

  • Algorithm: All data is encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM, a modern, secure encryption standard.
  • Key Derivation: Your encryption key is derived from your passphrase using PBKDF2 with 250,000 iterations, which makes brute-force attacks computationally expensive and difficult.
  • Local Storage: Your encrypted data is stored in your web browser’s secure IndexedDB storage. No data is ever sent to a cloud server.
