Disk Encryption Software That Delivers Beyond Your Expectations

Category: Computers & Internet: Security and Encryption

Few would argue that virtually every household today (if, of course, we are not talking about modern equivalents of troglodyte caves in the historical area if Cappadocia) has a personal computer. It may be a dusty 10-year-old PC with a typical "typewriter" configuration, a business laptop, a super-portable netbook or a powerful gaming system sporting cutting-edge hardware. No matter how this computer is used, it must store some information that you would rather keep private. This can be your IM log, your emails with lots of confidential information, important work documents taken home, your programs, any other intellectual property and a whole lot more. A portable computer (a laptop or a netbook) can be lost or stolen, and you will never know in whose hands it will eventually end up along with your personal or business information. Your family members also have access to your home computer and they can inadvertently delete or modify important information stored on it. The best way to protect any kind of personal or confidential information on a home computer is not just to isolate it in a separate folder or even a drive, but to encrypt it completely, granting access only to the person with the right password. All of this can be easily done using Cryptic Disk virtual disk encryption software. Cryptic Disk enables you to create a sort of container for your confidential information - a virtual encrypted disk. When connected, it will look like a regular disk on your computer. You will be able to assign it to any vacant letter and even connect as a folder located on an NTFS disk. Working with such a disk will be no different from working with data on a regular disk. That is, not only can you use such a disk for storing important documents, designs and layouts, but also for installing email clients (The Bat!, Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird) and IM clients (Skype, ICQ, AIM, YIM, etc.). This will reliably protect their logs and nobody will be able to start them until the disk is connected using Cryptic Disk disk encryption software. Such disks/containers have absolutely no markings or any sort that could potentially help identify them as encrypted disks. A disconnected drive looks like a file with a random set of useless data saved in an arbitrary order. All the programs installed on such a disk and all the data copied to it are automatically encrypted and decrypted when launched or read by other applications. The software uses a real-time encryption engine that makes the entire process transparent for the user, which ensures the maximum speed of these processes and does not affect the performance of the system. The engine uses the AES (Rijndael) algorithms with a 256-bit key that works in the XTS mode developed specifically for disk encryption software. To connect an encrypted container to the system, you need to enter the password you created or use your key files, so be extra attentive when storing these data and don't let anyone know your passwords. Even if a protected drive is lost or damaged, connecting it to another computer will do nothing - the data will be completely inaccessible. The only way to gain access is Cryptic Disk, key files and a password. When somebody tries to break into your password-protected encrypted container, they will face some serious protection against brute force and dictionary-based attacks compliant with the PKCS #5 v2 specification. Installing a keylogger won't help as well, since the program features a virtual keyboard for entering passwords that does not allow such types of malware programs to detect the very fact of password entry. Despite all these advanced protection mechanisms, Cryptic Disk is a perfect example of easy to use disk encryption software. The interface of the program was designed in full accordance with usability best practices, which enables even PC novices to efficiently use the program.
