"Every so often, I have to encrypt a file on MacOS. It may be a contract containing sensitive information, such as tax or bank data, or any other confidential details. If it's sensitive, I certainly don't want prying eyes to see it."
"There's not much to Encrypto; it does one thing, and it does it well. Encrypto uses AES-256 encryption, simplifies the sharing of encrypted files, offers password hints (that can also be shared), sends files via the OSX sharing system, and saves to disk."
"Open the Launchpad on your Dock and search for Encrypto. Once the icon appears, click it to launch the app. Click the downward-pointing arrow (which will turn into a +) and locate the file you want encrypted, or drag and drop the file from Finder into the Encrypto window. With the file added, a password prompt will appear below it. Type an encryption password for the file."
Sensitive files containing tax, bank, or other confidential details require encryption to prevent unauthorized access. Encrypto provides a simple macOS app that performs AES-256 encryption, enables sharing through the macOS sharing system, offers password hints that can be shared, and saves encrypted files to disk. Encrypto is free to install and is also available for Windows to enable cross-platform file exchange. Installation requires a desktop or laptop running the latest macOS. Usage involves launching the app, adding a file via drag-and-drop or selector, entering an encryption password when prompted, and then encrypting for sharing or storage.
