From: gjeffers@socketis.net (Gary Jeffers) The SecureDrive 1.4 disk encryptor system solves their computer site disk storage problem. It also gives them the solution to the "rubber hose" problem. With a "damaged" key file and the use of a password, they have an effective defense against court orders demanding keys. (see the docs for SecureDrive 1.4). Also disk encryptors not only encrypt files but also solve the problem of temporary work files that are used by many software packages (They can be reconstructed). ----------------------- Does anyone know of any strong encryptor systems that encrypt a MS-DOS directory with subdirectories, as opposed to a partition? Aside from convenience, this does have the potential advantage that if you did some FAT, etcetera manipulation, it wouldn't be possible to figure out what was garbage and what was encrypted without the program running properly (i.e., have an emergency hotkey combination that wiped the currently used password/phrase and removed the program and the alterations to the FAT). Also nice would be working off of a key on a 3.5" floppy, so it can be removed when not in use (thus reducing the need for typing in a password/phrase every few minutes). It should be compatible with Stacker and similar compression systems if possible, although it could also be run on the uncompressed drive- that way it'd take up more space, however. -Allen
