UtahFS: Encrypted File Storage

This post introduces UtahFS, a proof-of-concept for end-to-end encrypted file storage. It addresses the need for users to have complete control over their sensitive data, going beyond transport-layer and disk encryption. UtahFS implements features like encrypted directory structure, partial file access without full download/decrypt, and uses object storage, skip lists, Merkle Trees for integrity, and Path ORAM for hiding access patterns. This represents a significant advancement in providing users with granular control and privacy for their stored data.
