File and email security.

A new version of FileAssurity OpenPGP is available from ArticSoft. FileAssurity provides integration with Windows Explorer so that users need only 'right-click' to encrypt, sign, decrypt, verify, email, create secure notes and securely delete files. Other features include the ability to encrypt and email message text and attachments in one operation; a secure text editor, automatic updating of trusted certificate authorities and one-click secure file deletion that exceeds US government standards.

Also available in the new version of FileAssurity OpenPGP is an archive facility that will encrypt files to a zip file without needing to use WinZip or similar application. This means files can be encrypted, digitally signed, zipped and emailed in one operation straight from Windows Explorer.

ArticSoft supplies free-reader software so that any recipients of secured files can verify and unprotect them safely without having to purchase FileAssurity software. Rather than relying on password technology, FileAssunty OpenPGP is based on Open PKI technology and provides the same protection as PKI products while supporting the encryption and decryption of PGP-protected files as well as the generation, import and export of PGP and PKI cryptographic keys. It uses full-strength PKI technology and the FIPS 197 approved AES encryption algorithm at its strongest key length of 256 bits.
