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.

If your key is physically lost and you have kept an export file containing your key, you can simply import the key from the export file to recover your key. If your key is simply physically lost but not compromised (e.g. your hard drive crashed), the only thing you need to do is import the key back. However, if your key is physically lost and compromised (e.g. you have lost a laptop computer containing your keys), then you should also change the key after importing your key from the export file.

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.

We have no evidence to suggest that this will have happened. Following hours of intense investigations, we have only identified two accounts which have been compromised, both of which were accounts belonging to members of staff. We always run various security tests on our software. Once this flaw became apparent we acted as quickly as possible to ensure that this weakness in our software was removed.

No two people with LHON experience the same visual impairments. Some patients describe their vision as having an ever-changing swirl of color in their central field of vision. The severity at any given time can depend on tiredness, ability to concentrate and other factors.

Passwords within most programs (Word, Excel, Access etc.) can be broken by mere novices without any computing knowledge. Such password breaking tools are easily available on the Worldwide Web, for as little as $5.95, or sometimes even for free! On the other hand, a file that is encrypted with a strong encryption algorithm, for example Blowfish 128 bit that Cryptainer™ LE uses, is statistically impregnable against brute force attacks.

Encryption keys and other information are kept in encrypted format on the WLAN Array, rendering them useless for any malicious purpose.

IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT YOU RETAIN A COPY OF THE PASSWORD AND ENCRYPTION KEY YOU CREATE AS THIS WILL BE YOUR ONLY WAY TO ACCESS DATA. LOSS OF THE PASSWORD OR KEY WILL PREVENT YOU ACCESSING YOUR INFORMATION. WE DO NOT KEEP A COPY OF YOUR SECURITY DETAILS.
