Secure Your Important Flash Drive Files

It's really simple to hide, encrypt and password protect your data with CryptArchiver. All you do is drag-and-drop your important files and folders into an encrypted drive - just like an ordinary drive!

CryptArchiver creates a special Encrypted Drive that can only be accessed with a password. Files stored in this drive are automatically encrypted on-the-fly. Once loaded, the encrypted drive is like any other drive.

When you unload the encrypted drive, it disappears from Windows! No one can access your data without the password. Load the Encrypted Drive again with the password, to access your files.

Networks can be hacked, computers can be stolen. But encryption makes your data useless to anyone without the right password. Even if someone gets your encrypted files, they can't use them - that's the magic of cryptography.

CryptArchiver uses very strong cryptography - the registered editions use upto 256 bit Blowfish and 256 bit AES algorithms. Compared to this, most on-line banking websites use only 128 bit cryptography!

With CryptArchiver's strong security, you can rest assured that your files are accessible only to you. You are not limited to encrypting files and folders on your hard drive; CryptArchiver can also secure removable media like Zip, CD, DVD and USB drives.

Because your data is for your eyes only

Most of us have sensitive information on our hard disks. This content can range from financial information to private correspondence we'd rather no one else had access to. The best way to protect this content is to encrypt those files and folders.

You can protect all file formats - be it email, databases, spreadsheets, text, graphics, audio or even video. You can even make encrypted backups of your files easily on your hard drive, or on external media like CD, DVD, or USB drives. What's more, you can even install and run programs that are accessible and visible only to you!

Power of strong cryptography at the click of a mouse

Whether it's your business forecasts for the next financial year, your marketing strategies, the molecular structure of the new polymer you are patenting, lists of confidential client data, personal documents, email, images or even your vacation video.. your files are for your eyes only. We help you keep it that way.

CryptArchiver does not merely "hide" your files, it encrypts them. It protects your data with strong 256 bit Blowfish and 256 bit AES algorithms, making it statistically impossible for anyone to break into.

Designed and optimised specially for encryption

CryptArchiver works with most versions of Microsoft Windows. It runs as a special device driver or service.

It uses the Blowfish algorithm in Electronic Codebook (ECB) mode, with a 32 byte block size. The implementation conforms to international standards. It has been analyzed considerably and has been proven to be resistant against many attacks such as differential and linear cryptanalysis.

Optionally, you can also use the AES (or Rijndael) symmetric encryption algorithm. This is the official U.S. Government standard and is recommended by the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The use of AES is required to run CryptArchiver in FIPS-120 compatibility mode.
