Secryptor: Although it is better to keep the sensitive ones archives only on your local computer (and even better not connected to the internet) than storing them in the cloud, sometimes you can't do that.
You may need to share a file with another person who happens to live in another city or country, or you just want to back up your files to have them on your next business trip.
There's enough here somewhere space for encryption.
The Secryptor is a new program for Windows Mac as well as for mobile devices (iOS and Windows Phone, Android friends will have to wait a little longer). You can use it to encrypt any file on your system with just a few click. What makes it interesting is its integration and collaboration with Dropbox. After you've chosen to encrypt a file, you'll be asked where you want to save it.
You can save it locally or Dropbox. Once you have saved a file, Secryptor in Dropbox can be accessed with your own encryption key, or you can share a download code with others so that they can download and decrypt the file using Secryptor.
What is quite interesting is that the code that useste for the download is different from the password you have chosen to encrypt the file. According to the app developer, passwords are not stored in the cloud. For added security, the company says it only stores metadata in its European data centers. The program uses AES 256 to encrypt the file.
Secryptor offers two features that make it very interesting for some users. The first is the support of mobile devices, and the second is the perfect collaboration with Dropbox.
The program is not at all comparable to True Crypt that offered more functionality, but if you only want to encrypt some files, you may need it. Remember, however, that you must encrypt all files separately, while programs like True Crypt encrypt entire folders containing multiple files.
