It keeps private data private, adds recovery data for damaged storage,\nsplits cleanly across drives or cloud objects, and restores one file from a huge\narchive without unpacking everything else.\n\nOne command. One archive. No duct-taping together tar, compression, encryption,\nchecksums, parity files, split-volume naming, and restore logic.\n\n## Why people choose tzap\n\n- **It protects the stuff that matters.** File contents, names, metadata, and\n  indexes are encrypted.\n- **It is built for ugly storage reality.** Bit rot, missing volumes, old drives,\n  cloud copies, and cold archives are part of the design.\n- **It gets you one file fast.** Pull a photo, contract, source file, or record\n  out of a giant archive without restoring the whole thing first.\n- **It keeps big archives manageable.** Split archives into practical volume\n  files for drives, discs, object storage, or offline sets.\n- **It is open source and inspectable.** The Rust implementation, format spec,\n  tests, and fuzz targets are in this repository.\n\n## Built for\n\n- personal photo, video, and document vaults\n- private project and source archives\n- legal, research, media, and records storage\n- cold backups that need privacy and recovery\n- huge datasets spread across drives, discs, or cloud buckets\n- teams that need repeatable verification before restore\n\n## Try it in two minutes\n\nInstall:\n\n```sh\ncargo install tzap\n```\n\nCreate an encrypted archive:\n\n```sh\nexport TZAP_PASSPHRASE='correct horse battery staple'\nprintf '%s\\n' \"$TZAP_PASSPHRASE\" | \\\n  tzap create --password-stdin \\\n  -o backup.tzap \\\n  ./project\n```\n\nCheck it before you trust it:\n\n```sh\nprintf '%s\\n' \"$TZAP_PASSPHRASE\" | tzap verify --password-stdin backup.tzap\n```\n\nRestore one file:\n\n```sh\nprintf '%s\\n' \"$TZAP_PASSPHRASE\" | \\\n  tzap extract --password-stdin --stdout backup.tzap project/readme.txt\n```\n\nHomebrew, GitHub release assets, and source builds are covered in the\n[installation guide](public-docs/tzap-installation.md).\n\n## Recovery in plain English\n\n`tzap` can add recovery data when the archive is created. Later, if ordinary\nstorage damage happens, `tzap verify` or `tzap extract` can rebuild damaged\npieces within that recovery budget and then check the result before trusting it.\n\nFor split archives, `tzap` can also survive missing volume files when you choose\na matching volume-loss tolerance:\n\n```sh\ntzap create \\\n  --keyfile project.key \\\n  --volumes 3 \\\n  --volume-loss-tolerance 1 \\\n  -o project.tzap \\\n  ./project\n```\n\nSee the [recovery matrix](public-docs/tzap-recovery-matrix.md) for the simple\n\"what happens if...\" version.\n\n## Proof for serious storage\n\n- [Security model](public-docs/tzap-security-model.md): what is private, what is\n  checked, how keys work, and how safe restores behave.\n- [Recovery matrix](public-docs/tzap-recovery-matrix.md): bit rot, damaged\n  blocks, missing volumes, and user actions.\n- [Benchmark guide](public-docs/tzap-benchmark-guide.md): reproducible create,\n  verify, extract, selected-file restore, and recovery benchmarks.\n- [CLI reference](public-docs/tzap-cli-reference.md): every command, option, and\n  exit label.\n- [Operational boundaries](public-docs/tzap-operational-boundaries.md): concrete\n  behavior for automation and production workflows.\n\n## For developers and implementers\n\n- CLI crate: [crates.io/crates/tzap](https://crates.io/crates/tzap)\n- Core library: [crates.io/crates/tzap-core](https://crates.io/crates/tzap-core)\n- Signing plugin: [crates.io/crates/tzap-plugin-signing](https://crates.io/crates/tzap-plugin-signing)\n- Format spec: [specs/tzap-format-revisedv41.md](specs/tzap-format-revisedv41.md)\n- Development guide: [public-docs/tzap-development.md](public-docs/tzap-development.md)\n\n## License\n\nLicensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0.
