Professional Encryption Security - Simple as Using Your Normal Hard Drive!
ArchiCrypt Live offers real-time encryption and protection for sensitive private or business data. ArchiCrypt Live lets you encrypt all file types on your PC, laptop or network. That way ONLY YOU will be able to ACCESS your confidential information. Unauthorized access is effectively prevented.
Ease of Use
Using ArchiCrypt Live is as simple as 1-2-3. Select the data you want to protect - chose a password - ArchiCrypt Live� will do the rest.
Professional Encryption Technology
Even at this simplicity ArchiCrypt Live gives you state-of-the-art protection. The technology used in ArchiCrypt Live is also used by government agencies for data protection. Encryption algorithms used in ArchiCrypt Live were developed by independent cryptology experts, tested by the best cryptologists worldwide and recommended by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) http://www.nist.gov. Your files can be encrypted using either Blowfish or the Advanced Encryption Standard (256 bit AES) algorithm. This encryption technology will effectively protect your secret data (provided a strong password is used!). ArchiCrypt Live uses the hash functions SHA-1 (Secure Hash Algorithm 1) with a length of 160 bit and SHA-512 which creates a 256 bit cryptographically secure hash sum. ArchiCrypt Live uses such hash functions for different purposes. First for processing the random data that were collected during the generation of passwords or keyfiles. Second for identifying passwords and for computing keys from passwords. ArchiCrypt Live only stores decrypted files temporarily in your PC's RAM (memory). It never saves, not even temporarily, any decrypted data to a disk. Your data remains encrypted even while the volume is mounted as a drive. So not even in the event of a power failure will decrypted data remain on your hard disk.
Real-time Encryption
Encrypting sensitive data used to be difficult. ArchiCrypt Live makes data protection simple. ArchiCrypt stores your sensitive data in so called "volumes". Those volumes are single files (file extension is .acl) that contain all the files you placed in the volume. Since your secret data is encrypted and stored in one file it can be easily stored to any data carrier (e.g. hard disks, CDs, DVDs, USB sticks etc.). The process of encrypting (e.g. when you save a secret file in your ArchiCrypt Live drive) or decrypting a file (e.g. when you open a secret file) happens in real-time ("on-the-fly"). ArchiCrypt Live volumes can hold all kinds of data, pictures, mp3 files, office documents or any other files you use. You can even install applications in an ArchiCrypt volume and run it from there!
Seamless Integration in Windows
To access the secret data in your ArchiCrypt Live volume you need to "mount" ("open" and "load" are used synonymously) the volume. This means ArchiCrypt Live will open the volume, once you have entered the correct password, and make it available on your PC as an extra drive. The opened volume is now an "ArchiCrypt Live drive". The ArchiCrypt Live drive can be easily accessed from your Microsoft Windows Explorer (or any other file explorer). It will be assigned a drive letter and you can navigate through the files stored in the volume as you would on any other drive or folder.
Huge Volumes
ArchiCrypt offers up to 8 virtual drives (ArchiCrypt Live "drives"). Each can be 256 gigabyte in size. These virtual drives integrate seamlessly in your existing Windows environment. Everything saved to those volumes is stored absolutely safely even after a power failure. Volumes on USB sticks, CDs or DVDs can be used easily without copying the files first. Don't worry if you lose a CD o...
