CryptoExpert 8 Lite
-
Version
8.24
CryptoExpert Lite is a free encryption software. It
uses an on-the-fly encryption system to encrypt and
decrypt data. Data is stored in the encrypted form,
but when it is requested by any application, it gets
decrypted on-the-fly. Conversely, unencrypted data to
be stored is encrypted instantaneously and then
stored. The CryptoExpert system mounts a volume file
to create a "virtual drive" that appears to
applications and users like any other physical drive.
Any data that the user attempts to write to this drive
is intercepted by CryptoExpert, encrypted, and written
to the volume file. Attempts to read from this volume
are also intercepted, and the relevant data is read by
CryptoExpert from the volume file, decrypted, and
presented to the application trying to read the data.
Dismounting the CryptoExpert "virtual drive" ensures
that data cannot be read from or written to it. All
data is stored encrypted within the "container". As
far as windows is concerned, there is a 'new' disk
that has suddenly appeared. When the program exists or
the volume is unmounted, the file system stays
encrypted and there is absolutely no way anyone can
recover/get the data without the pass phrase.
The latest version includes special tool to erase all
personal traces on computer.
