i-ncript is a portable data encryption app, designed for use with removable storage devices. It is portable as it does not require aninstaller to run, can execute on any drive, and can be quickly transferred to another device without an install/uninstall process.
The focus on portability plays an important role in data security. The fact is, data is most vulnerable is when it is connected to the internet, and while many measures have been taken to ensure the safety of online data, an offline, portable data store is a far more simple yet far more effective method of data security.
Files are encrypted using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), which employs a sophisticated round-based encryption method to provide a robust security foundation. Your key is additionally encrypted using the Argon2i algorithm, which enhances security by resisting side-channel attacks and using "salting" to defend against rainbow tables.
