Plain Sight1.0.0

Plain Sight is a small software application whose purpose is to help you encrypt files inside other items using the 256-bit AES encryption algorithm. For example, you may hide passwords into photos which look the same as the original ones and have the same functionality (e.g. open, print).

Clean feature lineup

The tool reveals an intuitive design that allows you to set up the dedicated parameters in a short amount of time. Only a few details about the program’s capabilities are revealed in the main window. You can decode the configuration settings on your own because they look easy to work with.

Hiding and extraction options

Plain Sight gives you to the possibility to hide a user-defined file into another item. Files can be imported in the working environment using the built-in browse button (the drag-and-drop support is not implemented).When you hide data inside a target file, the application generates an ‘Unlock’ file which is needed along with the password in order to extract the hidden item. What’s more, you are allowed to set up a password and specify the location and filename where the ‘Unlock’ file is saved.Tests have pointed out that Plain Sight carries out a task quickly and without errors. It does not eat up a lot of CPU and memory resources so the overall performance of the computer is not affected. However, you should know that the files that contain the encrypted information are larger in size than the original ones, a thing which may raise suspicions to some users.Extracting the encrypted data can be done by providing information about the password, ‘Unlock’ file, target item, and location where the decoded item is saved.

Final remarks

To sum things up, Plain Sight comes packed with several smart encryption features for helping you hide and decrypt sensitive files on the fly. The intuitive feature package makes it suitable for rookies and professionals alike.
