This software tool provides straightforward disk encryption options, allowing users to password-protect removable and external drives. The encryption technology utilized assures exclusive access to encrypted drives by the user.
The software comes packed with an array of features that make it stand out from the rest. Firstly, it uses 256-bit AES algorithm encryption to secure your data. Better yet, it has two lock options - gold lock and silver lock - that encrypt every bit of data at high security levels and the file system at fast speeds, respectively.
One of the most impressive features of this software is its password features. It helps users choose a secure password while using SHA-256 algorithm validation. Plus, the software never stores passwords anywhere.
Additionally, this software verifies drive sectors before encrypting data and allows you to undo your encryption/decryption actions whenever you want. It can support various disks with plug-and-play functionality. You can even register Hpsetool in an external drive, and any computer can use it.
It supports all Windows file systems; that is NTFS, Fat32, Fat16, and Fat12. It is designed to work with Windows 2003 / XP / 2000 and on Windows Vista. Finally, the software provides support for XP visual styles and HTML online help.
In conclusion, this software is every user's dream come true. Its features are impressive, and it does an excellent job. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and easy-to-use disk encryption tool.
