INTRODUCTION
Today, saving your files in online data storage services such as Google
Drive, Microsoft OneDrive and manyothers has become a common operation.
The risk is that someone can have access to such data and for this 
reason it is a good idea to encrypt them ifyou want to hide them from 
prying eyes.

Today there are many ways to encrypt a file but unfortunately they are
all based on public algorithms.
A file encrypted using a well-known algorithm can be easily decrypted.

Having access to the algorithm means studying the code and finding 
vulnerabilities
but also simply havingthe way to create your own super efficient 
program to perform the decryption using the well-known bruteforce 
technique.

GICriptoFile Cross Edition is a program to encrypt our files using
a proprietary 128-bit symmetric keyalgorithm.

The algorithm is therefore not made public.



USE
To launch it, just double click on its icon.
The program was written in C ++ and requires no installation.
The program, once launched, will open a window.

Encryption
. In the 'File to Encrypt' box you will need to select the file you want 
  to encrypt;
. In the 'Encrypted File' box you will need to indicate the name of 
  the encrypted file;
. The Check option will perform a test decryption to verify that the 
  decrypted file is the same as the original;
. In the 'Password' field you will need to enter the password used for
  encryption, which must be at least 8 characters long.
. To start encryption you will need to press the [Start] button.

Decryption
. In the 'File to Decrypt' box you will need to select the file you want
  to decrypt;
. By selecting the 'Same folder with original name' option, the decrypted
  file will be saved in the same folderas the file to be decrypted with 
  the original name;
. By selecting the 'Specify pathname' option, you can indicate the 
  pathname of the decrypted file;
. In the 'Password' field, you will need to enter the password used for
  decryption;
. To start decryption, you will need to press the [Start] button.
