Create virtual encrypted disks with on-the-fly encryption. Cryptic Disk is a complete solution for protecting files from unauthorized access. The software creates virtual encrypted disks as well as encrypting hard disks, USB drives and memory cards.
As professional disk encryption program safeguarding data on any type of drive, Cryptic Disk will be a reliable defense for your files regardless of where they are located. The software can create virtual encrypted disks as well as encrypt physical hard disks (in their entirety or just certain partitions), USB drives and memory cards.
This allows you to maintain secrets both on a home computer and on a workstation. Data encryption makes use of the best algorithms (any of the following modern cryptographic algorithms can be used: AES/Rijndael, Serpent, Twofish, Blowfish, CAST6), and takes place in real time without affecting computer performance. Cryptic Disk provides its users with maximum functionality for protecting their information.
Encrypted virtual and physical disks are mounted as separate disks attached to a drive letter of your choice, or an ordinary folder on NTFS disks. They do not have any special markers which give away that they are, in fact, an encrypted disk. Addition protection can be provided using steganography, by creating hidden encrypted disks inside of other ones.
Cryptic Disk allows users to increase the encryption key size from 256 to 2944 bits by using cascade encryption (the use of multiple algorithms to encrypt data in sequence). This significantly increases the protection for encrypted data against being cracked.
The software supports XTS mode, developed specially for encrypting disk data. The software boasts powerful protection from brute force password attacks in accordance with PKCS #5 v2, as well as a virtual keyboard which protects user-entered passwords from keyloggers.
The only way to access encrypted data is by using key files or entering the password which only you know.
Cryptic Disk has configurable automatic actions upon mounting or dismounting an encrypted disk: play WAV files, or launch programs or scripts in the CMD Shell, Windows Script and PowerShell languages.
Cryptic Disk can also function in portable mode, which does not require that it first be installed on a computer before use. Use Cryptic Disk and see just how precious complete peace of mind can be.
Exlade Cryptic Disk Home Features:
1. Creation of virtual encrypted disks from container files and mounting them as separate disks
2. Encryption of whole disk partitions (internal and removable) as well as other drives (memory cards, pen drives, USB drives, and more) without losing information
3. Transparent (on-the-fly) data encryption which takes place in real time and does not affect computer performance
4. Deniable Encryption so that encrypted volumes do not contain any signatures which could be used to prove that they are encrypted disks or containers
5. Plausible Deniability, which allows creating hidden encrypted disks multiply nested inside of each other (steganography)
6. Support for using key files together with a password or instead of a password, offering users flexibility in how they deploy the disk encryption software
7. Powerful protection from brute force password attacks (both dictionary attacks and true brute force attacks) in accordance with PKCS #5 v2
8. Reliable protection from keyloggers (built-in virtual keyboard for entering passwords)
9. Ability to use the disk encryption program on a computer without installing it beforehand (portable mode)
10. Configurable automatic actions when an encrypted disk is mounted or dismounted: play a WAV file, or launch a software or script in the following languages: CMD Shell, Windows Scripts and PowerShell
11. Support for different cryptographic algorithms to encrypt data: AES/Rijndael, Serpent, Twofish, Blowfish, CAST6
12. Use of XTS data encryption mode, developed specially for disk encryption (IEEE 1619 standard)
13. Support for cascade encryption (use of multiple cryptographic algorithms to encrypt data in sequence) to improve the cryptographic strength provided by the disk encryption software, increasing encryption key size from 256 to 2944 bits in XTS mode
14. Support for using different algorithms for header key derivation: HMAC-SHA-512, HMAC-RIPEMD-256, HMAC-Whirlpool
15. Ability to mount an encrypted container/disk using any free drive letter or an empty folder on an NTFS disk
16. Support for setting hotkeys to quickly mount and dismount encrypted volumes
17. Support for automatic restoration of access settings to shared resources on an encrypted disk after mounting it
18. Optimization for multiple CPUs
19. Ability to access the program's features from the command line, which allows automating the process of working with the program
20. Multilingual interface
Limitations:
* Only the "demo" password is allowed
* Support for keyfiles is disabled
