GiliSoft Private Disk

GiliSoft Private Disk offers a suite of advanced features focused on securing and encrypting data, whether it's stored on your local drive, external storage devices, or in the cloud.

1. AES 256-bit Encryption: Files are encrypted with a powerful 256-bit algorithm, which is a standard for secure data encryption, rendering the encrypted files inaccessible without the correct password.

2. Password Protect Your Dropbox: Since Dropbox does not offer built-in client-side encryption, Private Disk allows you to create a secure locker within your Dropbox to safeguard your sensitive files.

3. Protect USB Storage: You can protect data on various USB storage devices, including USB flash drives and memory sticks, ensuring that your data remains secure even on portable devices.

4. Protect CD/DVD Media: The software enables you to burn encrypted data onto optical discs, providing a layer of security for data distributed on CD or DVD media.

5. Protect Email Attachments: Private Disk can encrypt files into a *.gpd format, allowing you to securely send attachments via email or on physical media.

6. Hide Files and Folders: You can drag and drop files into an encrypted private disk, which you can close to hide the contained files and folders from unauthorized access.

7. Disguise Folder with Password: This feature allows you to disguise a folder to look like a system folder (e.g., Recycle Bin, Printer, Network Dialing), which adds another layer of security through obscurity.

8. Password Managers: Private Disk includes a password management feature to securely store and manage passwords for various accounts and sensitive information.

9. Protect Files in Lockers: Lockers are encrypted virtual disk images that can be mounted as separate disks, enabling organized and secure storage of files based on type or purpose.

10. Transparent Encryption: The software provides file-level encryption that is transparent to the user, protecting against unauthorized access.
