Pastrami

Pastrami is a secure, minimalist text storage for your sensitive data. It is designed to provide a quick and efficient way to store sensitive information, ensuring that each piece of data is encrypted using its own unique item ID as the encryption key.

Features

• Memory-Only database: Pastrami can operate entirely in memory, offering fast access and retrieval of encrypted text without persisting data to disk.
• Item ID Encryption: Each piece of text is encrypted using its corresponding item ID. This ensures that the encryption key is unique to each stored item, enhancing the security of your sensitive data.
• Simple and Lightweight: The service is designed to be easy to use and does not impose unnecessary complexity. Integration with your applications or systems is straightforward.
