EXLADE, Inc. announced the release of version 2.1 of Cryptic Disk, apopular disk encryption tool that uses a trusted, validated algorithm(AES-256) chosen by the National Institute of Standards and Technology(NIST) and stated to be the cryptographic standard for years to come.AES-256 is a FIPS-approved symmetric encryption algorithm that may be usedby U.S. Government organizations and others to protect sensitiveinformation. Cryptic Disk easily creates encrypted disk partitions to keepprivate and confidential data secure. Cryptic Disk allows to 100% protectthe privacy of the important data and ensures that only the owner of thedocuments will get access to the protected data in accordance with thedefined user privileges.
"Cryptic Disk has been developed as a utility to work with hard drives, butit works just as well with removable storage media, such as USB Flashdrives. It's all simple - once the data is encrypted, the files cannot beaccessed by any person who does not know the password. After decryption, allfiles become accessible and the hard drive works normally," says VasilMikulich, the author of Cryptic Disk. "You can use Cryptic Disk either athome or in the office.

We also added multiple users support to the program,so different degrees of access privileges for different users can be set bythe system administrator. As a result each user will have access to theencrypted data that he or she has the access rights to, but not to the dataof others."
Cryptic Disk is a reliable solution whenever there is a need for dataprotection on a shared computer, a need to strongly protect confidentialdocuments, emails, business agreements, personal letters, tax returns orreceipts, bank accounts or any other sensitive information. Users do notneed any special knowledge in security to start protecting their privateinformation. No wonder Peter Marx, one of the customers, expressed hisgratitude in such words: "You guys have a good program, here. Goodinterface, easy to understand and use. I chose yours over Dekart PrivateDisk and SecurStar DriveCrypt".

With the new version of Cryptic Disk come several useful features. OperatingCryptic Disk became faster and easier as you can now specify system hotkeysfor the main operations in the program, like mount or dismount encryptedvolumes. It is also made possible to select multiple users in the UserManagement dialog box. What it means is that each encrypted disk/partitioncan have its list of users with individual passwords and access rights. Thedisk administrator (the user who created the disk) or other users authorizedby the administrator can manage the list of users. Among other improvementsare individual settings for each encrypted disk, an option to configuremounted encrypted disks to be automatically unmounted, etc.

Cryptic Disk Features at a Glance:
- Your disk(s) (including removable media) are secured with a powerful androbust encryption algorithm (AES-256) ensuring that only authorized usersmay access it;

All of these questions (and much more) are easily answerable with All My Movies software.
