Hello,
what is the best file encryption tool either graphically for QTopia or on the console? I'm thinking of a tool which lets me encrypt (using really strong encryption) single files or an entire directory at once, so that I can store sensitive data in that directory, which comes in different file formats (doc, mbox, txt, gif...) Something I have to log in with a password or pass phrase, then the files are accessable, and afterwards I can manually log out of the directory / file or/and there is a timeout which locks the files again after some time. What do you recommend? Thanks daniel |

Daniel,
If you mean like Securedrive or Securedevice on the HP200lx, then you can use Bestcrypt.... Read through this thread: http://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=18726 SNi QUOTE(daniel3000 @ Jun 8 2006, 07:53 AM) Hello,
