• "Handy, efficient, and secure"

• Reviewed by: CNET Staff
• Version reviewed: Cryptainer LE 7.1

This program offers a much more convenient interface than most encryption utilities, by acting as a virtual drive you can place anywhere on your PC. You can access encrypted drives and perform operations, such as copying, transferring, and compressing files from within any application. Also, Cryptainer LE makes it easy to hide all your sensitive information by letting you remove the virtual drive with a single click. You can run the application on any 32-bit Windows system or network with the assurance that its 128-bit Blowfish encryption will keep your data safe. Since the program lets you create self-decrypting executable files, you can send secure documents to anyone, even if that person doesn't have Cryptainer LE installed. The application didn't slow our system's performance during testing, though the free version creates volumes of up to only 25MB, which is still enough for working with office documents. If you can't exert much energy on file security, you'll find Cryptainer LE the perfect tool.

  Version: Cryptainer LE 7.1

  "easy to use and effective"

  by Joshua Foreman on December 15, 2007

  Pros: User-friendly product, very similar to True Crypt. Creates 448-bit Blowfish (or other choices) encrypted folder up to 25 MB in size, mounts as a volume; you can assign its drive letter. After entering the password (your choice), files can be dragged and dropped into the container. You can create as many volumes as you have available drive letters, on hard drives, flash drives, any media that can be mounted as a drive under Windows. A very mature, stable product, backed by a major company that sells enhanced versions of Cryptainer at very reasonable prices. Their customer list includes some major companies and government agencies. This is an excellent choice to encrypt data on flash drives, in case you lose the drive. I haven't noticed any performance hit, unlike what you get with some software-based flash drive encrypters.

  Cons: One password opens Cryptainer LE, so every volume has the same password. Menu could be better designed; newbies must learn by trial and error. These are minor quibbles compared to the value of this product; everyone who carries data on flash drives should use it!
