Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This is easily one of the more useful freeware file encryption programs we've found, and the latest version fixes a few minor bugs. Kruptos 2's file menu and icon interface is the picture of simplicity. Encryption is almost effortless. You can drag and drop files to the Kruptos 2 window, and the latest version adds support for dragging and dropping folders.
The encryption algorithm is Blowfish 128-bit, and fast. A key feature obfuscates file names but leaves folder names unaltered. The program offers a feature to see original file names with the proper password, but it is invoked one file at a time. However, Windows integration means you can perform all functions from your context menu.
Unlike many similar programs, files in nested folders are all quickly encrypted as individual files. With a single click you can decrypt a file and edit it, and the file re-encrypts on close. Self-extracting encrypted files are created with a minimum of fuss. The Shred function deletes original files to DOD standards. The program does offer a nag screen for donations, but only once. Kruptos2, with all its features, is what every user needing simple file encryption desires.

Version: Kruptos 2 3 build 1.0.0.18
Pros: Works fast...don't know how strong the actual encryption is, but I've tested it the best way i know how...and it passes! ALWAYS MAKE A SECOND COPY OF YOUR WORK BEFORE ENTERING THE ENCRYPTION PROCESS...duhh, or you might press the delete button...but any noob should know that...it's the first rule in computer technology. Works w/out flaw, program easy to understand. Can easily decrypt what you encrypted(as long as you have the password) Program doesn't need to be installed on another computer if you transfer data from computer to computer. I HIGHLY RECOMEND!!!
Cons: Its called freeware...this works soooo well that you should have to pay for it...freeware almosts degrades the quality of this program.
