No, CipherSafe.NET™ generates a different cryptographic key for each application. Keys are also dependent on certain machine characteristics and user-defined settings.

A.  It uses a proprietary encryption algorithm. The user's password is not stored in the file or on the disk. Therefore, there is no one (including the author of SECURE™) that can decrypt a SECURE™ encrypted file if the password is forgotten.

Before any information is uploaded into your CopySafe, it is automatically compressed and encrypted. You will have a password, also called an encryption key, for accessing your data. It is the only way to decrypt your files after retrieval. It is very important to notate this password/key and keep it in a safe place for future reference.

To date there have been no successful cryptanalysis of RIPEMD-160 which produces an output of 160-bits.

PGP gives you choices for RSA and DSA key size ranging from 512 to 2048 or even 4096 bits. The larger the key, the more secure the RSA/DSA portion of the encryption is. The only place where the key size makes a large change in the running time of the program is during key generation. A 1024 bit key can take 8 times longer to generate than a 384 bit key. Fortunately, this is a one time process that doesn't need to be repeated unless you wish to generate another key pair.

The story begins: When Julius Caesar sent messages to his trusted acquaintances, he didn't trust the messengers. So he replaced every A by a D, every B by a E, and so on through the alphabet. Only someone who knew the ''shift by 3 rule could decipher his messages. A cryptosystem or cipher system is a method of disguising messages so that only certain people can see through the disguise. Cryptography is the art of creating and using cryptosystems.

Very Important. Without it, your backup data will remain encrypted and unreadable. All data that is selected for backup is encrypted before leaving your computer. We have no way at all of reading this information should you lose your encryption key.

If you need to change your password or encryption key, select either the Change Password or Change Encryption Key buttons from the application that is also supplied by Your-Data. Changing your encryption key involves intensive processing on our servers and may take several minutes. It should therefore not be done unless your encryption key was compromised.

DigiVault, security is of utmost importance. Therefore, if you misplace your 'encryption key' we will be unable to restore any of your data stored on our servers.

We cannot help you if you lose your Personalized Encryption Key. Your encryption and decryption key is designed for your security. If you do not have access to the original software and do not have the printed page that you were prompted to print during the installation, then you willl not be able to access your backup! With 128-bit AES Encryption there is no "reset" key.

No. We cannot recover your encryption key, this is chosen and set by you and is maintained by you and your system, making it invisible to us and anyone else for that matter. top

This depends on the server software and browsers used. Modern browsers and servers (from 2000 onwards) encipher the data with 128-bit, thus guaranteeing a very high degree of protection. When you are purchasing a SSL certificate, make sure it is suitable for this 128-bit encryption. This way, you provide visitors to your website with optimum protection.

Since data never leaves your computer unencrypted, you must have your password/encryption key to recover any files. If you have lost your password/encryption key, e-mail us at support@eCopySafe.com

Encryption garbles your data by using irreversible mathematical functions. It is simply the encoding of data so that it cannot be read by anyone who does not know the password that decodes it.

The short answer: BitWise uses encryption on all messages and files sent between you and your contacts; this includes whiteboards, shared file lists, and chat rooms. You can verify the encryption by using a packet sniffer on yourself to watch your network traffic. The long answer: Our white paper Introduction to encryption and how BitWise uses encryption explains in detail how BitWise's encryption works and how the encryption protects and benefits you.

Cryptainer LE runs as a special Windows device driver. It operates on a 128 bit implementation of the Blowfish algorithm in Cipher Block Chaining mode with a block size of 64 bytes. This ensures that data encrypted using Cryptainer LE is impermeable to all known forms of attack. Statistically, it would be impossible to successfully brute-force crack the Cryptainer LE encryption. Blowfish was designed by Bruce Schneier.

We use 256-bit BLOWFISH Encryption, one of the most trusted encryption algorithms. The Blowfish algorithm is fast, powerful and very secure. It can be used in confidence for your files.
