How it works

STRONGBOX makes a zip locked with AES-256, written the way WinZip and 7-Zip write it, so the person you send it to can open it with the tools they already have. It also opens a password-protected zip and saves what is inside. The older ZipCrypto lock is weak, and a long passphrase matters more than anything else. Forget the passphrase and the files are gone.

Doing this often? The OBSCURA Sovereign Suite seals files so that only the person with the passphrase opens them, with stronger encryption than a zip. On its own, US$4 a month; with everything else, US$9 a month or US$79 a year. 7 days free.
