Encryption Question - Third Party Tools

[jimcampbell100]

Hi,

If I use Cryptomator to perform a client-side encryption of an S3 mounted bucket, would I be able to use another (non-mountainduck) solution to read the files in that bucket?

Also - if I used Cloudberry Drive (for example) to encrypt files in an S3 bucket, would I be able to use mountainduck to access those files (assuming I have the passphrase)?

Sorry - I know this is basic, but I'm not sure if there is a set protocol for S3 client side encryption.

Thanks!

The implementation of the Cryptomator vault format in Cyberduck and Mountain Duck is interoperable with applications from Cryptomator ¹.

If the encryption in CloudBerry is using AWS S3 SSE ² it is interoperable as well. Refer to our documentation.
