History

In 2017, Cure53 audited the software.[7][8] Cryptomator was lauded for its high degree of robustness in cryptographic implementation, but criticized use of AES in insecure ECB mode. Tobias Hagemann, however, said this was a false positive.[8]

In December 2021, Cryptomator 2.0 was released for iOS, which was rewritten in Swift and integrated with the native iOS Files app.[9][10]

In January 2022, an update was released for a bug that leaked file path to Apple, because of the integration with Apple's file and use of File Provider Extension API.[11]
