Changes in Encrypt-It v2.00 for DOS provided the following over v1.44:
- Added proprietary+ and DES plus cipher block chaining (CBC) to the
encryption methods. You now have four options: proprietary,
proprietary+, DES, and DES+CBC. DES+CBC provides an extremely high
level of protection for your data. Encrypt-It uses DES or DES+CBC
as an additional layer on top of the proprietary level of encryption.
This makes our DES and especially our DES+CBC virtually unbreakable.
- Added routines to allow you to proceed with decryption even if a CRC
error is detected. We don't recommend that you proceed with decryption
after we detect your data has been altered (via a built-in CRC).
However, your data may be important enough to try manual reconstruction
of the damaged areas.
- Added an decryption option to allow you to wipe the encrypted source
file after decryption.
- Expanded the built-in help.
- Other minor touchups and improvements.
Changes in Encrypt-It v2.10 for DOS provided the following over v2.00:
- Encrypt-It now has the ability to convert any file to an email
format. This functionality is provided as a standalone utility
called Email-It. You can easily convert any file to and from an
email format. You will find Email-It useful with many other
program's files also. Feel free to use Email-It there also.
- Email-It provides:
-- Conversion of any file to and from an email format.
-- Built-in CRCs to detect any change to the file's contents
due to transmission errors, tampering, etc.
-- Restoration of ALL details when converting back to normal
file format. Including the file's name, date, and time.
-- Lightning fast performance due to the use of high performance
C coupled with assembly language subroutines and CRCs implemented
using very fast lookup tables.
- Touched up several areas of the program.
- Other minor improvements.
Changes in Encrypt-It v2.11 for DOS provided the following over v2.10:
- Corrected a problem where the configuration file (EID.CNF) paths
didn't override the default paths under some conditions.
- In the email function, corrected a problem where the initial file's name
wasn't correctly stored in the email file.
- A couple of minor touch-ups.
