I'm launching a product shortly that offers exactly this feature to Dropbox (or Google Drive, SkyDrive, ...). It's a native OSX and Windows app that keeps the keys on the users' computer and transparently encrypts and decrypts files before they're sent to your cloud storage provider.

The product is in beta right now but I'd love some more people to try it out. If you sign up at http://safeboxapp.com, you'll get a download link to try it out.

Just signed up for it.

How does it compare to BoxCryptor where you can also access your files using EncFS?

Unlike BoxCryptor, it's not based on an encrypted volume. Instead, files and directories in a designated folder are individually encrypted (much like Dropbox).

Wow, I had the exact same idea around a month or two ago, but didn't have time to execute.

Please tell me you are sending out invites today.
