Smart Encryptor 2.11

Imagine this situation if you will. You are in a crowded airport, waiting for your flight. While you wait you take out your laptop and start doing some work. When you hear the boarding announcement for your flight, you rush off and forget your laptop behind – it’s something that happens more often than you would think. Now the problem is that if someone finds your laptop, that person could access your private, confidential data.

But if you encrypted and password protected your sensitive files, no one can access them. You can rest assured that your files will remain private.

How do you do that? Why you do what I always do – turn to software and see if there is an application out there that can lend a helping hand. An application that can prove to be useful in this situation is the SmartSoft-developed, the aptly named Smart Encryptor.

This application, with its easy to figure out interface, will allow you to easily encrypt and password protect your files. The functionality Smart Encryptor provides is never more than one click away; this is because the application integrates with Windows Explorer. So when you want to encrypt a file, just right click it and select “Encrypt with Smart Encryptor” from the menu that appears.

Smart Encryptor is useful if you want to safely send data over the web. You can send encrypted files to one of your friends for example; you can send a self extracting file that includes the encrypted data along with the software to automatically decrypt it. This way your friend can access the data you sent him even if he doesn’t have Smart Encryptor installed on his system.
