ShadowHash - All in One Crypto Solution

Abstract

ShadowHash is a comprehensive cryptographic platform designed to enhance data security and integrity. Built using Java for the backend and HTML/CSS for the frontend, it is hosted on GitHub and AWS Amplify. The platform offers cryptographic tools such as password security, encryption, decryption, hash generation, integrity verification, and threat detection. It integrates APIs like VirusTotal, HaveIBeenPwned, and Hackcheck Woventeams for breach detection and malware scanning.

Installation

Clone the repository and navigate to the project directory:

git clone https://github.com/AdityaBhatt3010/ShadowHash-All-in-One-Crypto-Solution.git
cd ShadowHash

Key Features

1. Email Breach Checker – Checks if an email was part of a data breach using the Hackcheck Woventeams API.
2. Password Breach Checker – Uses HaveIBeenPwned API to verify if a password has been compromised.
3. Password Generator – Generates strong passwords, including user-defined secure ones.
4. Encryption Algorithms – Supports AES, 3DES, Blowfish, RSA, and a custom ShadowHash special encryption algorithm.
5. Decryption Algorithms – Supports decryption for the above encryption methods.
6. Hash Creator – Provides hashing algorithms (MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256) for data integrity.
7. Hash Comparison Checker – Validates data integrity by comparing hash values.
8. Virus Detector – Uses the VirusTotal API to scan files for potential malware.

Technology Stack

• Frontend: HTML, CSS
• Backend: Initially Java, later transitioned to JavaScript (Vanilla JS, Express, Node.js)
• Hosting: AWS Amplify (integrated with GitHub for CI/CD)
