Publisher's description of BestCrypt 5.04

From Jetico:

BestCrypt is data-encryption software for Windows NT 4.0 that performs encryption on the fly while creating so-called virtual drives. There is automatic encryption of all files written to the drive. The program supports NTFS and FAT drive formats and works with any network file server. It features an easy, standard Windows NT interface and extends the shell of the operating system. Other features include strong encryption algorithms, Blowfish and GOST (both with 256-bit key size), Timeout, HotKey, and Guard features.

Editor's review of BestCrypt 5.04

5.0 stars
"Encryption made handier"

This program offers a more-convenient method for encrypting files than other utilities in its class. Since BestCrypt secures files by creating virtual drives that are handled like normal ones, you won't waste time encrypting separate files. You can access your files and perform operations such as copy, move, and compress from within any application. The program uses several tough-to-crack encryption algorithms, including Blowfish, Twofish, and Rijndael, but you also can add others if you like. When you want to hide your sensitive information, you simply disable the drive with one click. We appreciate that you can place your encrypted drive on removable media, such as Flash memory or a CD. For added security, BestCrypt cleans free disk space, making it impossible for others to restore deleted files. If you don't have a lot of time to devote to data security, by all means give BestCrypt a try.
