Product Description
The security of sensitive data is often neglected. Only an encryption provide a full protection of the files on your computer or sending by email.abylon BASIC is a collection to encrypt, sign, compress, search, copy or move your files and folders.

As secret it is possible to enter a password over the keyboard or to use a removable media (e. g. memory stick), a smart card or CD. abylon CRYPTZIP is a surface for creating and editing compressed ZIP archives, whereby the encryption and signing also supported. Functionality abylon PASTE optimise the copying and moving procedure of files. For example unchanged files are not copied, from changed files make a backup and after moving the source files to the target, the source files are wipe automatically!

If you need to protect files in your computer from possible access by intruders, you must get a good software that guarantees protection and is not easy to crack. Abylon Basic provides full protection of the files that you have stored on your computer and even those you have received or sent via mail.
Abylon Basic is a collection of different software algorithms meant to compress, encrypt, sign, protect, move, copy, and search your files and folders. The software integrates easily in Microsoft File Explorer and commands appear in its context menu. The encryption technology used, Easy Encryption Technology (EEnTe), makes it easier to set up protection on your files and folders. Each of the components in this software work together for enhanced protection of different kinds of files.
Software Features
Abylon Basic features a myriad of security options to keep your files secure. There is a password scrambler that separates the passwords into puzzle-like pieces that make it hard for an intruder to find the exact sequence. The Abylon SYMM Crypt is a certificate-based encryption that has a signature and is used to protect files that are being transferred via e-mail. Others include the CRYPT ASSISTANT which allows for step-by-step file encryption and a CRYPTZIP, which creates and compresses zipped files and folders.
You can deactivate menu points in the settings and a key can either be entered through a keyboard or using a USB stick. You can also use a smartcard or command line call to open or lock your files. Whichever the medium used, the key is encrypted to ensure that your files are stored safely.

Abylon Basic requires an Intel Pentium processor or any other compatible processor with minimum of 256MB RAM. It works on all versions of Windows and allows for access using a smartcard reader or USB connection.
Pros
The software features a combination of multiple security standards including PC/SC, RSA, Blowfish and AES algorithm, CAPI (Microsoft Crypt API), ZIP Compression, and Microsoft Certificate Database among others. It is easy to install and implement, especially if you are used to security software. It does quite a good job in protecting your files while at the same time provides you with multiple options of retrieving your stored files.
Cons
Only professionals can use the advanced features that this software offers since novice users may encounter difficulties in choosing the appropriate encryption options.
