Silver Key 3.71 Description


Every day unencrypted information sent over the Internet lands in crooks hands. Are you at risk?

Transferring sensitive information in the unencrypted form is just as “smart” as leaving a car and house unlocked all-night or walking through a high-crime area with money hanging out of pockets. Every day new stories about security holes and exploits come out and it’s not going to stop any time soon. How can one protect private data from crooks? Simply do what FBI, CIA and US Department of Defense do - always encrypt data!

Silvery Key is an affordable solution for a very costly data protection problem. Silver Key can encrypt any document using advanced encryption standard algorithms approved by the US Government. The process of encryption is a very simple one - select file, right-click it and set the password. That’s it. Only the password barer will be able to decrypt protected data. Importantly, because advanced encryption algorithms are used, the password can’t be picked easily as in case with password-protected ZIP, DOC, XLS and MDB files.

The encrypted data can then be transferred over non-secure networks, like Internet or moved via CDs, DVDs and flash drives. Importantly, Silver Key can compress data, so it takes less space. The process of decryption is even simpler than encryption. One can either enter a password or use a key file. A key file is an ordinary looking file, a JPEG image for example, that is used to unlock data. Plus all encryption and decryption can be done through the command line.

Silver Key is a great security product for home use, but businesses use it as well especially if the business must comply to the HIPAA privacy regulations for health organizations. Silver Key is probably the most affordable corporate security solution that is 100% HIPAA-compliant.
