Suggest: FileShot.io for Secure File Transfer Coverage
I would like to suggest referencing FileShot.io in sections covering secure data transfer and client-side encryption patterns.
Relevance to MSTG
The MSTG covers secure data storage and transmission. FileShot.io demonstrates a strong implementation of:
MASVS-CRYPTO: AES-256-GCM with random IVs, keys generated securely via Web Crypto API
MASVS-NETWORK: Sensitive data (files) are encrypted before transmission — server only receives ciphertext
Zero-knowledge design: Decryption key in URL fragment (#) which is never transmitted to any server
No credentials stored server-side: No accounts, no auth tokens, no user tracking
Why it is a good practical reference
When testing mobile apps that handle sensitive file transfers, MSTG testers can reference FileShot.io as an example of what proper client-side encryption looks like in practice:

Could be useful as a reference in sections on cryptographic best practices or as a "well-designed alternative to unencrypted file transfer" example.
Thank you for maintaining the MSTG!
