Developer’s Description

By Mirage Software

Perform 256-bit cascading file and volume encryption.

Krypta uses three layers of multiple encryption. Each file or volume is encryptedwith one layer (800,000 iterations) of 256-bit AES, one layer (800,000 iterations)of 256-bit Twofish, and then one layer (800,000 iterations) of 256-bit Serpent ciphers.Each layer of encryption uses an independent SALT (Random hash) an independentpassword, and independent hashing functions.These independent variables help to keep each layer as separate and independentfrom each other as possible. This maximizes and utilizes the benefit of multipleencryption. After all what is more secure: a house with the doors locked, or ahouse with the doors locked, security cameras on the house, and an attack dogwaiting inside the house?

A keyfile may also be used to fully maximize security. The keyfile may be any file theuser wishes from a picture file to a video file, just make sure to store the keyfilein a safe place as the file cannot be decrypted without it.The keyfile works by supplying separate amount data to the algorithm that isn'taccessible from the Salt or password. A cracker could discover your password(s)and still wouldn't be able to properly decrypt your file because they don't havethat other data supplied by the keyfile.
