Kruptos 2 Professional

Kruptos 2 Professional is a powerful security application that allows you to encrypt your files. This type of application is strongly recommended if you share your workstation with multiple users.

The interface of the application is professional-looking. Thanks to the Explorer-based layout, you can easily locate files and select them for encryption by using either the file browser or folder view ('drag and drop' is not supported). Working with multiple items at the same time is possible.

You have two encryption methods available - you can either set a password and optional hint to protect your files, or use a key file (Kruptos 2 Professional reads its MD5 checksum value, so you don't need the physical file if you know its signature).

Additional features of Kruptos 2 Professional allow you to shred files, remove an item from the list of protected files, create as self-extracting file, ZIP archive or email, as well as use a search function. Plus, you can clear the recent history.

The program runs on a moderate amount of CPU and system memory, is pretty responsive to commands, and includes user documentation. We have not come across any problems during our testing; Kruptos 2 Professional did not freeze, crash or pop up error dialogs. Less experienced users can seamlessly learn how to work with this app, thanks to its intuitive layout.
