DriveCrypt enables you to create secure storage areas on your PC, Notebook or removable USB drive. The containers will act as virtual drives and can be accessed like any other drive letter. DriveCrypt transparently encrypts and decrypts files within the secure containers whenever you access them - once unmounted the drive(s) will become invisible. Other features include steganographic hiding of files, fast hotkey control, automatic locking, password sniffing protection and more. In addition to encrypted containers or virtual drives, DriveCrypt can also encrypt entire hard drive partitions, however this feature is disabled in the trial version. The software secures your data with industry standard encryption methods, including 1344 Bit Military Strength Encryption.
DriveCrypt securely and easily protects all proprietary data on notebooks and desktop computers 100% of the time without users having to worry about security. Any organization, from a small company to a large international firm with thousands of users in the field, can impactfully protect business plans, client lists, product specifications, confidential corporate memos, stock information, and much more with this product. As data is read from the hard disk, DriveCrypt automatically decrypts the data before it is loaded into memory. When data is written back to the hard disk, it is automatically re-encrypted. The encryption/decryption process is totally transparent to the user or any application software - the data is caught "on-the-fly" as it transfers back and forth between the hard disk and memory. Consequently, users dont need to remember to decrypt or re-encrypt their data, or change the normal operation of the PC. In addition, only individual files are decrypted at any given time, not the whole hard disk.
DriveCrypt Key Features:
1. Strong Cryptography
1344 Bit Military Strength disk encryption using the best and most proven cryptographic algorithms such as AES, Blowfish, Tea 16, Tea 32, Des, Triple Des, Misty 1 and Square.
2. Easy to Install, Deploy & Use
DRIVECRYPT data encryption program requires minimal administration and user training. Disk encryption is totally transparent, requiring no change in the way users work with the computer.
3. Maximize Your Security, Minimize Your Risk
DRIVECRYPT protects your data with very fast and a true "on the fly" disk encryption process. Other products that claim to be "on the fly" decrypt an entire file and load it into memory, creating significant security risks. DriveCrypt file encryption program is smarter and more secure because it decrypts only the specific portion of a file that is in use. Unprotected data never resides on a DriveCrypt encrypted hard drive.
4. Disk Partition and file volume encryption
(Partition encryption with DriveCrypt standard edition only)
DRIVECRYPT allows both, the encryption of an entire Hard Disk partition, as well as the creation of a virtual container file that will store all the encrypted information.
5. Invisible Containers
(DriveCrypt standard edition only)
The DriveCrypt Standard edition has the capability to create an INVISIBLE disk INSIDE a container or partition. This way you define two passwords for a container. The invisible disks password gives you access to your working disk, which is hidden in the unused area of your "outer" disk, while another password gives you access to the pre-setup DriveCrypt volume in which you only store data that you would want others to believe is the only data in the container or partition. This is very useful in cases where an aggressor may force you to reveal the DriveCrypt disk's password: By revealing the password of the first or "outer" disk, the aggressor will ONLY see the "prepared data": IE data you put in there, before creating the hidden disk, while he will not be able to see or get evidence that there is another invisible container that securely stores confidential data on the disk.
6. Hide data into music files ( Steganography read more)
Using special so called "Steganographic" functionalities, DRIVECRYPT allows you to hide all your sensitive information into music files. Just authorized users will be able to access secret information, anyone else will only find harmless music on the computer
7. Easily encrypts Pen-Drives and USB disks on a container or partition level.
With the HOT Disk option, DriveCrypt can also optionally automatically request the users authentication data as soon as the USB device is inserted. When the USB disk is removed from the computer, all the data are automatically inaccessible to unauthorized persons.
8. Improved Password Security
DRIVECRYPT allows administrators to configure several password settings:
- Master Password Settings
- Restricted second user Passwords
- Second user Password Expiration
- Console Lock-Out Password
9. Password Sniffing Protection
DRIVECRYPT integrates special functionalities that prevent passwords from being sniffed by Hackers or Trojan horses such as Back Orifice, SubSeven etc...
10. No-Evidence Encryption
DRIVECRYPT container files do not have any file header that indicates it is a DriveCrypt encrypted file. Therefore, without knowing the right passphrase, it is impossible to prove that a large container file on the computer is a DriveCrypt virtual disk container.
11. Administrator Password Control (keyfiles)
DRIVECRYPT allows system Administrators to assign different passwords to different users.
12. Anti Dictionary or Brute Force Attack mechanism
DRIVECRYPT makes Dictionary or Brute Force attacks against encrypted volumes much harder than any of the actual competitor products by dramatically slowing down these processes.
13. Easy and fast hotkey control
DRIVECRYPT allows the most used commands like mount or dismount encrypted volumes to be rapidly accessed trough Hotkeys and/or the toolbar.
14. Second User Access
DRIVECRYPT allows the creation of a master password, as well as different lower rights second user passwords (keyfiles).
15. Forgotten user password recovery
DRIVECRYPT allows administrators using the master password, to access an encrypted disk even if the user has forgotten his user password. This ensures that a company can restore a user password if forgotten. DriveCrypt prevents loss of valuable data from user's workstations and notebooks by allowing three methods of encrypted data access:
16. Eliminate the Danger Of Unattended Computers
DRIVECRYPT provides an automatic and/or manual lock-out feature that locks out the user's console and displays a password-protected screen saver.
17. Secure Disk Deletion (Disk Wiping)
DRIVECRYPT allows you to wipe the free space on a disk.
This ensures that deleted files will never be recovered by special disk tools.
18. Encrypted Volume Resizing (DriveCrypt Standard edition)
An Encrypted Volume may, with time, become too small or too big, for the amount of data it has to contain. Therefore, DriveCrypt offers you a Volume-Resize functionality. This will allow you to easily adapt a volume to your needs at any time, and optimise the Hard Disk space.
19. External Hardware Support
DRIVECRYPT supports optional external hardware devices such as: Fingerprint and Smartcard reader, as well as USB token.
20. Works on any Storage Medium
DRIVECRYPT works on any kind of Hard Disk, and removable medium such as Floppy-, Zip-, Jazz-, Sygate-, CD-Rom, DVD- Drives etc and manages up to 16 TERABITE of encrypted data.
