It ensures your sensitive information stays private — only you can unlock and read your data.\n\n\u003clink rel=\"icon\" type=\"image/x-icon\" href=\"docs/assets/icon-32.png\"\u003e\n\n## Features\n\n- 🔒 **Password-Protected** - Encrypt sensitive notes with a password of your choice\n- 👁️ **Secure View** - Preview encrypted notes without decrypting them permanently\n- 📁 **Local Storage** - Encrypted notes are stored locally in Joplin's database\n- 🛡️ **Strong Encryption** - Uses industry-standard AES encryption with Webcrypto API.\n- 🔄 **Multiple Modes** - Supports AES-CBC, AES-CTR, and AES-GCM modes with 128-bit or 256-bit key sizes.\n\n## **Disclaimer**\n\n**NO RECOVERY** – If you forget your password, your encrypted notes are permanently lost. There’s no way to recover or reset it. Please keep backups of anything important.\n\n**NO WARRANTIES** – This plugin is provided \"as is\" without any guarantees. While it uses industry-standard AES encryption, no system is 100% secure. The author is not liable for data loss or security issues.\n\n**_Use at your own risk. By using this plugin, you accept these terms._**\n\n## Installation\n\n### Plugin Market-Place (Recommended)\n\n1. Open Joplin and navigate to `Tools \u003e Options \u003e Plugins`\n2.

Previously encrypted notes will use the settings that were active when they were encrypted.\n\n## FAQ\n\n**Q: Can I encrypt all my notes or notebook at once?**  \nA: Currently, the plugin encrypts notes individually. Batch encryption may be added in future versions.\n\n**Q: Are resources in my notes encrypted?**  \nA: This plugin only encrypts your note contents. Resources like images, attachments are **not** encrypted because they’re just hyperlinks not the actual files themselves.\n\n**Q: Are encrypted notes searchable?**  \nA: No, encrypted content cannot be searched until the note is decrypted.\n\n**Q: What happens if I uninstall the plugin?**  \nA: Encrypted notes will remain encrypted. Reinstall the plugin to decrypt them.\n\n## Contributing\n\nContributions are welcome!
