Publisher's description of BestCrypt 8.05.4
From Jetico:With BestCrypt you allocate a portion of free space on your drive to keep sensitive data in encrypted form. This creates a virtual drive that you work with as you would any other drive. BestCrypt uses strong encryption algorithms, including Blowfish, GOST, and DES. Features include a time-out option, hot keys, a wiping utility, the ability to add your own encryption algorithm, support for Windows XP, swap-file encryption, and a hidden container.
Version 8.05.4 includes new version 2 of BestCrypt Volume Encryption and allows dismounting several selected virtual drives from Windows Shell.
Editor's review of BestCrypt 8.05.4
5.0 stars
- "Encryption made handier"
This program offers a more-convenient method for encrypting files than other utilities in its class. Since BestCrypt secures files by creating virtual drives that are handled like normal ones, you won't waste time encrypting separate files.
You can access your files and perform operations such as copy, move, and compress from within any application. The program uses several tough-to-crack encryption algorithms, including Blowfish, Twofish, and Rijndael, but you also can add others if you like. When you want to hide your sensitive information, you simply disable the drive with one click. We appreciate that you can place your encrypted drive on removable media, such as Flash memory or a CD.
For added security, BestCrypt cleans free disk space, making it impossible for others to restore deleted files. If you don't have a lot of time to devote to data security, by all means give BestCrypt a try.
