CryptoHeaven is an encryption utility optimized for secure Internet communication. You can use it to send secure and anonymous e-mail and instant messages, post safely and privately in online chatrooms and forums, and safely store, share, and distribute files online. It offers both free and premium individual and multiuser encryption services and the latest encryption technology, such as no third-party keyholders and algorithms that basically take longer than the age of the universe to break.

Downloading and installing CryptoHeaven is easy, and so is signing up for a free account. The odd nag screen extols the advantages of the full version, such as greater capacity for messages and files, stronger encryption, and multiple accounts. Logging in calls up CryptoHeaven's main window, which is much like an e-mail client in layout and function. Excellent documentation amply illustrated with screen shots walks new users through the basics of using CryptoHeaven, such as its Folder Tree and its Context Sensitive Folder View. There's also a "digital safe deposit box" for secure online storage.

Like most secure online communication tools, both parties must have active CryptoHeaven accounts, and each must be in the other's contact list, to send or receive protected e-mail, instant messages, or file transfers. However, with more and more business being done online and with a growing threat from cybercrime, it's a wise precaution that's well worth the effort to set up and use. The premium version offers expanded online storage and multiple user capabilities at various prices for advanced and enterprise users.
