HissenIT released CrococryptFile – An open-source file encryption software

Added at 05/10/2015

HissenIT recently released an open-source file encryption software called CrococryptFile.

It is a file encryption tool which creates encrypted archives of arbitrary files and folders. The encryption features of CrococryptFile can be compared to a ZIP utility that uses ZIP's AES encryption.

What might sound trivial and unnecessary is a significant improvement to security and privacy features of the widely used ZIP encryption. The differences of CrococryptFile are:

• encrypting all file and folder information including filenames, time/date and filesize information
• disguising any information of the archive's content, because all data and meta-data is simply integrated into a giant file dump
• using state-of-the-art password-based encryption algorithms

CrococryptFile is provided as a free service and open-source. It is free software without registration, without activation, without limitations and without ads. It currently runs under Windows (XP and up), Linux, Mac and offers a Web-based decryption application.
