Enfomi Description
Enfomi is a software application developed in Java, which gives you the possibility to encrypt files and folders using various security algorithms, including 256-bit AES. It’s also capable of generating self-decrypting archive in order to extract the items on any computer, even if it doesn’t have this tool.
Requires Java Runtime Environment to work
Needless to say, Java must be installed on the PC to be able to use this app, even if it’s just for decrypting the standalone archives (they are made in .jar format). However, Enfomi isn’t wrapped in a setup kit, so you can directly launch the downloaded file on any PC. Unlike most installers, it doesn’t add new entries to the system registry, so no leftovers will remain on the PC after removing the app.
Encryption files and folders using a password
The main app window is split into two tabs, one for encryption and decryption, and another for customizing options. It’s possible to add multiple files and folders to the task list to encrypt at the same time, specify the saving directory and name of the encrypted file, as well as enter a passphrase that will be required for decryption. After triggering the encryption task, you will be asked to enter the passphrase again for confirmation.
Create self-decrypting or encrypted files only
In the options panel, you can ask Enfomi to either create a self-decrypting archive or an encrypted file only. In both cases, the files will have the .jar format. Also, you can select the preferred security algorithm from a drop-down menu. Unfortunately, their descriptions are not very explicit.
When attempting to decrypt an archive, you will be asked to specify the passphrase and destination for storing the new files. Therefore, it’s not necessary to remember the security algorithm used at encryption.
Conclusion
All things considered, Enfomi delivers a quick and easy method for encrypting files and folders using a password and various security algorithms.
