Overview
is a desktop security utility which allows you to encrypt, decrypt, sign, verify, and wipe selected text, files, and e-mail messages.
In depth
The program supports ISO-7816 smart cards, enabling you to decrypt files only when the smart card is present in its attached reader, placing an additional layer of security between your information and unauthorized access.
For additional two-factor authentication security, SynCrypt File and Mail stores the private key (used for the two actions of decryption and document signing) on the ISO-7816 compliant PrivateCard smart card.
You can also generate industry standard user keysets, which encrypt, decrypt, sign, and verify. Each keyset consists of a password-protected private key, and a non-secured public key distributed freely to others.
The program's "Group Keys" function lets you generate group keys that allow information encryption by a pre-determined group of users. Group keys can be used to perform both pinpoint and file encryption.
In addition, individual and group public keys can be exported as e-mail attachments, on floppy disks, or over a network, and users can digitally sign and verify each others’ public keys to create a Web of trust.
The program appears as a movable deskbar anchor at the top of your screen for easy access to your information security functions, and can run as a convenient icon in the System Tray area of the Windows taskbar.
