Crypt It Description
When dealing with confidential or private data, it is best to encrypt your files to make sure the information cannot be accessed by unauthorized people.
Crypt It is one of the many utilities that you can rely on, especially if you are looking for portable and straightforward apps.
Portable app for encrypting several files
As previously mentioned, this solution is a portable one, meaning that you do not need to install it on your PC, and you can carry it on a removable flash drive, then launch it whenever needed.
Its interface is as intuitive as it can be since you only need to add your files, enter the password and start the encryption using the AES algorithm, so even novices can protect their files without any hassle. The original data can be erased as soon as the encryption is completed.
Comes with a few drawbacks
On the downside, Crypt It does not feature support for drag and drop, therefore the only way to select the documents you want to encrypt is by manually browsing to their location. Also, you cannot change the output folder, as the protected files are automatically saved in the source location.
The password always needs to be longer than 32 characters. While this in itself is a good thing, since longer passkeys bring about increased security, some users might not be willing to type such a long string every single time they encrypt one or more files. It would come in handy if a master password could be defined and applied for all future encryptions.
Encrypt and decrypt text messages
A useful function is that it can encrypt texts as well. After you type or paste a message, you need to enter a password of at least 12 characters and get a scrambled version of your text. It goes without saying that decrypting both files and texts require the correct passkey.
All in all, Crypt It is a reliable solution for those who want to quickly encrypt files and are not interested in selecting a custom algorithm.
