Wincrypt Over the past years, the growth in the Internet has been phenomenal. Most people understand the benefits of using the Internet to communicate and share information. Many however pay little attention to the security of their sensitive or private documents whether stored on their computer or e-mailed over the Internet. Wincrypt is a simple to use piece of software that prevents private files or information from falling into the wrong hands. ![]() Wincrypt is a comprehensive desktop file encryption / decryption utility program for use with the Microsoft Windows Operating System. This small yet extremely useful program allows users to safely encrypt any file, document or folder using 256 bit AES Rijndael. Encryption jumbles up the data held within a document - like mixing up the pieces of a jigsaw. Only the document itself knows how to put the pieces back into logical order. A password is used like a key to unlock the file. The encrypted file can then be safely transported on CD, floppy disc, network or Internet and can only be accessed by an authorised user, using a password. This ensures that the file is safe from hackers and any other unauthorised person. |
