Typically you encrypt files because you don't want others to see them, but sometimes you want to send someone an encrypted file. Most if not all encryption programs allow you to do so - they vary, however, in terms of how difficult the process is.
Advanced Encryption Package Professional is a program designed to help you encrypt your files and send them to someone else. The program has the ability to work with .zip archives.
The most noteworthy feature of Advanced Encryption Package Professional may be its flexibility: Not only can you encrypt files for your own protection but you can easily create "self-decrypting" versions of your files that others can run without needing AEP Advanced Encryption Package Professional or any other software.
Advanced Encryption Package Professional includes a file shredder that wipes the contents of your original files. It also integrates nicely with Windows Explorer, allowing you to use Explorer's context menus and avoid having another window clutter your screen. It also uses military grade encryption for protecting your private files.
