ProtectedText – A Free Encrypted Notepad To Save Your Notes Online
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
Note taking is an important skill to have for all of us. It will help us to remember and maintain permanent record of what we have read, learned and listened to. There are so many apps, tools and utilities available out there for note taking purpose. Today I am going to talk about one such application. Say hello to **ProtectedText** , a free, encrypted notepad to save the notes online. It is a free web service where you can write down your texts, encrypt them and access them from anywhere from any device. It is that simple. All you need is a web browser in an Internet-enabled device.
|
||||
|
||||
ProtectedText site doesn’t require any personal information and doesn’t store the passwords. There is no ads, no cookies, no user tracking and no registration. No one can view the notes except those who have the password to decrypt the text. Since there is no user registration required, you don’t need to create any accounts on this site. Once you done typing the notes, just close the web browser and you’re good to go!
|
||||
|
||||
### Let us save the notes in the encrypted notepad
|
||||
|
||||
Open ProtectedText site by clicking on the following button:
|
||||
|
||||
You will be landed in the home page where you can type your “site name” in the white box given at the center of the page. Alternatively, just write the site name directly in the address bar. Site name is just a custom name (E.g **<https://www.protectedtext.com/mysite>** ) you choose to access your private portal where you keep your notes.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
If the site you chosen doesn’t exist, you will see the following message. Click on the button says **“Create”** to create your notepad page.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
That’s it. A dedicated private page has been created for you. Now, start typing the notes. The current maximum length is a bit more then 750,000 chars per page.
|
||||
|
||||
ProtectedText site uses **AES algorithm** to encrypt and decrypt your content and **SHA512 algorithm** for hashing.
|
||||
|
||||
Once you’re done, click **Save** button on the top.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
After you hit the Save button, you will be prompted to enter a password to protect your site. Enter the password twice and click **Save**.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
You can use any password of your choice. However, it is recommended to use a long and complex password (inclusive of numbers, special characters) to prevent brute-force attacks. The longer the password, the better! Since ProtectedText servers won’t save your password, **there is no way to recover the lost password**. So, please remember the password or use any password managers like [**Buttercup**][3] and [**KeeWeb**][4] to store your credentials.
|
||||
|
||||
You can access your notepad at anytime by visiting its URL from any device. When you access the URL, you will see the following message. Just type your password and start adding and/or updating the notes.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The site can be accessed only by you and others who know the password. If you want to make your site public, just add the password of your site like this: **ProtectedText.com/yourSite?yourPassword** which will automatically decrypt **yourSite** with **yourPassword**.
|
||||
|
||||
There is also an [**Android app**][6] available, which allows you to sync notes across all your devices, work offline, backup notes and lock/unlock your site.
|
||||
|
||||
**Pros**
|
||||
|
||||
* Simple, easy to use, fast and free!
|
||||
* ProtectedText.com client side code is freely available [**here**][7]. You can analyze and check the code yourself to understand what is under the hood.
|
||||
* There is no expiration date to your stored content. You can just leave them there as long as you want.
|
||||
* It is possible to make your data both private (only you can view the data) and public (Data can be viewed by all).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
**Cons**
|
||||
|
||||
* The client side code is open to everyone, however the server side code is not. So, you **can’t self-host the service yourself**. You got to trust them. If you don’t trust them, it is better to stay away from this site.
|
||||
* Since the site doesn’t store anything about yourself including the password, there is no way to recover your data if you forget the password. They claims that they don’t even know who owns which data. So, don’t lose the password.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
If you ever wanted a simple way to store your notes online and access them wherever you go without installing any additional tools, ProtectedText service might be a good choice. If you know any similar services and applications, let me know them in the comment section below. I will check them out as well.
|
||||
|
||||
And, that’s all for now. Hope this was useful. More good stuffs to come. Stay tuned!
|
||||
|
||||
Cheers!

ProtectedText：一个免费的在线加密笔记
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
记录笔记是我们每个人必备的重要技能，它可以帮助我们把自己听到、读到、学到的内容长期地保留下来，也有很多的应用和工具都能让我们更好地记录笔记。下面我要介绍一个叫做 **ProtectedText** 的应用，一个可以将你的笔记在线上保存起来的免费的加密笔记。它是一个免费的 web 服务，在上面记录文本以后，它将会对文本进行加密，只需要一台支持连接到互联网并且拥有 web 浏览器的设备，就可以访问到记录的内容。
|
||||
|
||||
ProtectedText 不会向你询问任何个人信息，也不会保存任何密码，没有广告，没有 Cookies，更没有用户跟踪和注册流程。除了拥有密码能够解密文本的人，任何人都无法查看到笔记的内容。而且，使用前不需要在网站上注册账号，写完笔记之后，直接关闭浏览器，你的笔记也就保存好了。
|
||||
|
||||
### 在加密笔记本上记录笔记
|
||||
|
||||
访问 <https://www.protectedtext.com/> 这个链接，就可以打开 ProtectedText 页面了。这个时候你将进入网站主页，接下来需要在页面上的输入框输入一个你想用的名称，或者在地址栏后面直接加上想用的名称。这个名称是一个自定义的名称（例如 <https://www.protectedtext.com/mysite>），是你查看自己保存的笔记的专有入口。
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
如果你选用的名称还没有被占用，你就会看到下图中的提示信息。点击“Create”键就可以创建你的个人笔记页了。
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
至此你已经创建好了你自己的笔记页面，可以开始记录笔记了。目前每个笔记页的最大容量是每页 750000+ 个字符。
|
||||
|
||||
ProtectedText 使用 AES 算法对你的笔记内容进行加密和解密，而计算散列则使用了 SHA512 算法。
|
||||
|
||||
笔记记录完毕以后，点击顶部的“Save”键保存。
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
按下保存键之后，ProtectedText 会提示你输入密码以加密你的笔记内容。按照它的要求输入两次密码，然后点击“Save”键。
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
尽管 ProtectedText 对你使用的密码没有太多要求，但毕竟密码总是一寸长一寸强，所以还是最好使用长且复杂的密码（用到数字和特殊字符）以避免暴力破解。由于 ProtectedText 不会保存你的密码，一旦密码丢失，密码和笔记内容就都找不回来了。因此，请牢记你的密码，或者使用诸如 [Buttercup][3]、[KeeWeb][4] 这样的密码管理器来存储你的密码。
|
||||
|
||||
在使用其它设备时，可以通过访问之前创建的 URL 就可以访问你的笔记了。届时会出现如下的提示信息，只需要输入正确的密码，就可以查看和编辑你的笔记。
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
一般情况下，只有知道密码的人才能正常访问笔记的内容。如果你希望将自己的笔记公开，只需要以 <https://www.protectedtext.com/yourSite?yourPassword> 的形式访问就可以了，ProtectedText 将会自动使用 `yourPassword` 字符串解密你的笔记。
|
||||
|
||||
ProtectedText 还有配套的 [Android 应用][6] 可以让你在移动设备上进行同步笔记、离线工作、备份笔记、锁定/解锁笔记等等操作。
|
||||
|
||||
**优点**
|
||||
|
||||
* 简单、易用、快速、免费
|
||||
* ProtectedText.com 的客户端代码可以在[这里][7]免费获取，如果你想了解它的底层实现，可以自行学习它的源代码
|
||||
* 存储的内容没有到期时间，只要你愿意，笔记内容可以一直保存在服务器上
|
||||
* 可以让你的数据限制为私有或公开开放
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
**缺点**
|
||||
|
||||
* 尽管客户端代码是公开的，但服务端代码并没有公开，因此你无法自行搭建一个类似的服务。如果你不信任这个网站，请不要使用。
|
||||
* 由于网站不存储你的任何个人信息，包括你的密码，因此如果你丢失了密码，数据将永远无法恢复。网站方还声称他们并不清楚谁拥有了哪些数据，所以一定要牢记密码。
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
如果你想通过一种简单的方式将笔记保存到线上，并且需要在不需要安装任何工具的情况下访问，那么 ProtectedText 会是一个好的选择。如果你还知道其它类似的应用程序，欢迎在评论区留言！
