******* ABOUT ********* NCrypted - simple encryption software Copyright (C) 2015 Sebastian Baginski <s.baginski@mail.com> NCrypted is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version. ******** GENERAL BUILD REQUIREMENTS ********* - CMake (3.0.2 or newer) - C++11-aware compiler (tested on VS2012, g++ 4.5.2) - Qt 5.x (optional) - NVidia CUDA development package (optional) ******** BUILD ON WINDOWS / LINUX ********* Use CMake to generate Makefile (unix) or Visual Studio project files (windows). On windows Visual Studio is needed to build with CUDA support. You can disable CUDA and build with other compiler (tested with gcc) ********* HOW TO USE ********** Simply select a file or folder to encrypt / decrypt. !! VERY IMPORTANT !! You need to remember the password used to encrypt your data ! It will be impossible to recover your data without the password. NCrypted does not save the password (or even a hash) along the encrypted files, so make sure you will remember it. If you give wrong password when decrypting your data, NCrypted will still go on with encryption, but the result will be just a bunch of useless bytes. This is not a developer laziness, this is just another security measure. Recommended use case is to encrypt your file on local machine and then store it on some other medium, as NCrypted does not wipe the file data from the hard drive sectors. You will have to use some other software to do that. ************ HOW DOES IT WORK *********** NCrypted is implemented on top of AES algorithm with 128-bit key. As long as you won't give your password to anyone, your data should be safe. Of course if you are not carefull, your original file can still be recovered from the hard drive. Implementation of AES used in NCrypted is available along with its source code. *********** BUG REPORTS / FEATURE REQUESTS ********* Feel free to contact me at s.baginski@mail.com
