BFacs 2.13

BFacs is an abbreviation for Blowfish Advanced CS: a freeware program to encrypt files and entire folders on your hard drive. The program boasts a solid foundation and is even open source: the author's website it is in fact made available the source code. Most experts can then analyze in depth the operation of the program realizing the level of security offered by BFacs. The fact that a program for encryption is made available together with its source code is a clear testimony of how the algorithms used are safe.

BFacs, contrary to what one might think, is extremely simple to use and does not require either of installation can be started by double-clicking its executable file (exe) and can even be run from floppy disk (uncompressed only occupies 1.3 MB). With this capability, BFacs can then be used to encrypt personal data on your personal computer at home, at work or on any other computer, without the need to be installed.
BFacs you can encrypt files and folders using a large number of algorithms: Blowfish (algorithm open source), Twofish, Rijndael, Cobra128, CAST, IDEA, Mars, PC1, triple-DES and others.

It would be useless to encrypt files on disk if an attacker, interested to see our personal documents, had the possibility to recover the original by using special utility undelete. BFacs includes, in order, an interesting feature (wiping) that allows you to permanently destroy deleted data.

The program provides an external file that makes it easier, by anyone, the translation and customization of menus and commands.
