Cryptex

Cryptex is a lightweight and very simple to understand software utility created to provide you with the ability of protecting sensitive files from prying eyes, particularly handy when you wish to share them with friends or colleagues on the web or store them in the cloud.

User-friendly and intuitive looks

Following a quick and unsurprising installation, you can launch the program and start working with it right away, its straightforwardness translating into a minimal effort in using it, even for IT novices.
The main window of Cryptex will display your existing libraries, allowing you to lock, unlock, edit or remove them with a few mouse clicks.

Encrypt files with a password of your choice through the AES-256 algorithm

To get started, you can create a new library by assigning it a name and a password, then confirming the latter to make sure it was written correctly. Once you press the ‘OK’ button, the tool automatically opens a folder, where you can store all the files you wish to protect, regardless of their format.
The library, created in CPX format, will then be displayed in Cryptex’ main window, where you can lock or unlock it by clicking on the corresponding icon, open it and view, remove and add new files to it, as well as modify its password or completely delete it.
The application encodes your libraries using the AES-256 encryption algorithm, which offers a high level of protection against people potentially trying to break in and steal your data.
At the same time, for an increased security, Cryptex is able to automatically activate the protection for the libraries whenever your computer goes into standby or when the usage session is locked.

A useful data encryption instrument for you to try

On a closing note, Cryptex is a practical and efficient program that can assist you in protecting important files during transfer operations, when uploading them to the cloud or when sending them to the people directly concerned with their contents.
