bantots Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 what is the best file encryption software available? PGP, or something else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belatucadrus Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 Quite a few to look at here I like AxCrypt, but it depends what you want. Cryptainer style secure folders, or simple encryption of specific files. Whatever you use, remember that "Password" is a lousy password and that long alpha numeric passwords are inherently more secure.OK so PGP offers 256 bit encryption, but who cares. Unless the CIA or MI5 are after you, the 128 bit products aren't going to be cracked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cozofdeath Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 Why not use the built in encrytion file system. That uses the very strong AES algorithm. Unless you have xp home. Most encryption apps nowadays offer very good protection with usually blowfish 384 or 448 bit encryption. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
