Do I Need File Encryption?

 Encryption software for Windows 7

Ask around, and you'll hear numerous thoughts on whether to use encryption.

Undoubtedly, it can add complexity to using your computer. It may be a insignificant discomfort such as having to log in with a password every time you turn on your computer, or a considerable obstacle, such as having to remember dozens of passwords every time you want to do anything with files on your computer.

Encrypting large files can take a lot of time and computing power. Even worse, losing passwords can lead to data loss. So why bother?

The answer is simple: if you send important documents as email attachements or you have files on your computer which are sensitive enough, you should use encryption.

For example:

  • Do you have data that could cause damage to or embarrass your organization or your personal reputation if it fell into the wrong hands? (For example, a memo outlining your organization's legal strategy for suing a corporation that has illegally dumped hazardous waste in your community's landfill.)
  • Are there documents on your computer that are strictly confidential? (For example, bank and credit card account numbers, or personnel files.)
  • Do you send and receive email messages containing confidential information about your organization's work?

If the answer to any of these questions is "yes," you should take steps to ensure the privacy of this data.

Why Advanced Encryption Package Pro?

 AEP PRO  boxshot

And last but not least, we have been developing and improving Advanced Encryption Package for many years (first version was released in 1998!) and it was one of the first file encryption products on the market 12 years ago.

Since this date and to 2010 year we implemented hundreds of improvements suggested by thousands of our customers from around the world (aep pro is used in 80 countries) and now, Advanced Encryption Package 2010 Professional is the most feature rich file encryption software for Windows 7, Vista, XP, 2003, 2000.

 

 

 

 

File Encryption Software Features

Strong and proven encryption algorithms to protect your confidential documents

To secure sensitive data AEP PRO file encryption software uses 20 proven and strong encryption algorithms. AES, Blowfish, Twofish, GOST, Serpent and others.

Easy to use for novices. Integration with Windows context menu.

Encryption technology is a difficult thing, especially if you are not technical savvy. How is an older family member supposed to figure out how to create self-decrypting file, securely delete file, use Public Key Infrastructure to receive mails securely?

This file encryption software made easy for novices. It integrates nicely with Windows Explorer, allowing you to use Explorer's context menus for file encryption/decryption/secure deletion directly from well known Windows Explorer.

AEP file encryption software can encrypt single file, multiple files at once or even whole windows folder(s).

Using USB sticks to store encryption / decryption keys

It is possible to store all your encryption passwords on USB Flash Drive. You just need to remember single Master Password for the password vault on this USB memory stick. No need to keep 20 passwords in mind when you can store these encryption keys on flash memory in an encrypted form and remember just one password.

It might sound simplistic, but strong passwords are a must for good security. And good password is combination of several words that aren't themselves a word interspersed with special characters (e.g., !4scOrE&sDayNYeaRs_ag0).

What is the real difference between weak password and stong randomly generated password?

AEP file encryption software can generate really strong encryption key (the real example is "(+3!';0.;4{M>tMpRnK7&*u'F7)SYu2Q"). And ability to remember such strong passwords (with the help of usb memory stick of course) is the key to use modern encryption algorithms 100% effectively.

Securely delete source files after encryption. Never delete confidential files using Windows Explorer!

It is a common misconception of PC users that once they have dropped a file into the recycle bin and emptied it that that is it, the file is gone for good.

All that happens when you erase a file by either deleting it or putting it into the trash, is that Windows has been told not to recognize the file so you do not see it when you open a folder or your desktop. In fact, it is not erased at all, the data is still there on your hard drive and it will remain there until the information is over written by some other file or data.

We know what we say, we have developed special software to recover accidentally deleted files and we know all about file systems used in Windows Vista and XP.

AEP file encryption software can wipe the contents of the original pre-encrypted file beyond recovery to make sure that not even a trace remains after shredding. AEP PRO matching and exceeding the specifications of the U.S. Department of Defense to stop software and hardware recovery tools.

AEP supports about 20 ways to securely delete file:  Peter Gutmann algorithm, U.S. DoD 5200.28, VSITR, German Standard, Bruce Schneier algorithm, NATO Data Destruction Standard, GOST P50739-95 Russian Standard, The National Computer Security Center Standard, Canadian Standard, NAVSO P-5239-26, US Navy Standard, AFSSI-5020, US Air-Force Standard, AR380-19, US Army Standard and simple Quick Wipe algorithm.

Symmetric and asymmetric encryption (support for PKI)

AEP PRO file encryption software supports symmetric and asymmetric encryption.

In first mode (symmetric) you just use the same password and for encryption and for decryption using one of ~20 available symmetric encryption algorithms (AES, Blowfish, Serpent and etc).

In second mode (asymmetric) you create (using AEP PRO) a pair of keys: the public key and the private key. You publish the public key file on web site (or send it to any person via e-mail). This key is used to encrypt file and send it back to you. Once encrypted, the file cannot be decrypted using this public key file. You receive file and use the private key file - i.e. your secret key file to decrypt document.  

  • AEP PRO includes the PKI keys manager and the key generator tool. It generates pair of public/private keys with strength: 512, 768, 1024 or 2048 bit.  
  • RSA encryption is used with strong symmetric encryption algorithms together. Public key is used to encrypt randomly generated password. And this password is used to encrypt whole file.  
  • AEP PRO can protect private key file by password. So, you can store your decryption keys in an open form on USB sticks, windows folders, etc. It can be stolen but cannot be used.

Bonus! Command line utility to automate file encryption and decryption tasks

In a program folder you will find a separate command line utility (aepcmd.exe). It supports all program operations: encryption and decryption with password, PKI encryption and decryption, secure file deletion, generation of PKI keys. This utility understands file masks, can process windows folders recursively, can fetch file/folder list from text file or can be set in command line.

This command line utility can easily be integrated with your batch script because this console utility returns status codes on every operation (errorlevel, that can be analyzed in your script). All command line keys and switches and status codes are fully documented in the help file.

AEPCMD can be configured to securely delete file(s) after encryption and you can use it to encrypt all new files in folder and its subfolders on a schedule basis (the encryption console utility will recognize and skip already encrypted files).

AEP prevents the use of 'weak' passwords and enhances total security

AEP file encryption software controls entered encryption password is different ways. On one side it has special password quality indicator. It becomes red for weak passwords (short passwords, passwords consisting of characters only or digits only and etc). On other side, AEP maintains internal dictionay or 45,000 common english words and recognizes these words in password and warns you when you use weak dictionary password to prevent well known dictionary attack.
