R-Crypto Disk Security 1.4

R-Crypto Disk Security 1.4 offers you a powerful yet simple software which can be used to protect confidential information and personal data on a desktop, notebook, or a removable data storage device against unauthorized access.

R-Crypto creates virtual disks (virtual data storage devices) encrypted on-the-fly. Such virtual disk is an ordinary file stored on any data storage device whether it?s a hard drive, USB-disk, CD, DVD, or a network resource. An access to any information on the virtual encrypted disk is impossible unless user provides a correct password. All files stored on the disks are encrypted and decrypted in a real time using the cryptographic infrastructure of the Microsoft Windows operating system that includes various installable cryptographic service providers already pre-installed in Windows OS. For example Microsoft provides the most secure encryption algorithm Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) with 128, 192, and 256 bit keys. A free fully functional 30-day trial version.

Major Features:

1. Simple and easy-to-use interface
   
   • R-Crypto Management Panel providing access for the user to all actions of the system.
   • Wizard guiding the users through the creation of encrypted disks.
   • List of the most frequently connected encrypted disks (can be disabled).
   • Configurable list of auto-connected encrypted disks.
   • Change the size of the encrypted disk easily.
   • Access to encrypted disk control actions outside the R-Crypto Management Panel directly from the Windows shell (for example, connect/disconnect).
   • Special icon for connected encrypted disks in the Windows shell (can be disabled).
   • Access to most R-Crypto actions from the Windows system tray.
2. Safe and reliable data encryption and protection
   
   • Users can use various cryptographic service providers, both pre-installed in the Windows operating system and available from the third parties.
   • Disk free space encryption (can be disabled).
   • Wizard guiding the users through the disks re-encryption.
   • Ability to connect an encrypted disk in the read-only mode.
   • Configurable hot keys to disconnect either all connected encrypted disks, or each disk separately.
   • Automatic disconnection of all connected encrypted disk upon user's logoff.
   • Ability to automatically disconnect the encrypted disks upon screensaver startup, entering the hibernation mode, or computer lockup.
   • Ability to automatically disconnect the encrypted disks upon encrypted disk file-container storage media is removed from the system. New feature in R-Crypto 1.4!
   • Ability to automatically disconnect the encrypted disks upon exceeding an encrypted disk inactivity period. Inactivity period is a period of time when the connected encrypted disk is not being used, that is it is a period of time when no data is being read from the disk or being written to the disk. New feature in R-Crypto 1.4!
   • Ability to enforce the disconnection of locked encrypted disks upon automatic disconnection.
   • File-containers of the connected encrypted disks are protected against re-writing and deletion.
   • Wipe encrypted disks for secure deletion..
3. Using over network
   
   • Ability to create and connect encrypted disks' file-containers located on any accessible network location;
   • Connecting an encrypted disk emulating a "local disk" to provide access for remote users (required for Windows XP and later versions);
   • Automatic saving and restoring of the encrypted disk network sharing options. New feature in R-Crypto 1.4!
4. Advanced usage
   
   • Ability to connect the encrypted disk to an empty NTFS folder (e.g. C:path-to-empty-NTFS-folder).
   • Support for system disk utilities (check disk, defragmentation, etc.).
   • Command-line utility to manage encrypted disks' connections.

Enhancements:

• Ability to automatically disconnect the encrypted disks upon encrypted disk file-container storage media is removed from the system.
• Ability to automatically disconnect the encrypted disks upon exceeding an encrypted disk inactivity period.
• Automatic saving and restoring of the encrypted disk network sharing options.

Requirements:

•  An Intel-compatible platform running Windows 2000/XP/2003/Vista/Windows 7 Beta (32 and 64 versions).
• At least 10 MB of of free disk space to install the program and enough disk space for encrypted disks file-containers.
• Internet Explorer 6.0 or later.
• The administrative privileges under Win 2000/XP/2003/Vista/Windows 7 Beta are required during installation to install R-Crypto.
