Cryptosystem ME6 6.34 (Shareware, $29)

Cryptography is that area of expertise which deals with secret writing, the art or science of storing information in a form which hides it from those not meant to see it, yet allows it to be revealed when needed. Cryptosystem ME6 is a software program which encrypts information stored in data files so that it can be read only by someone who knows the encryption key which was used to encrypt that data. The encryption key is a word or phrase given to the program which it uses to scramble the information in a way which is unique for that key. Once encrypted, the data is secure from unauthorized access, since anyone who does not know the key cannot decrypt the data. When Cryptosystem ME6 is used to recover the data the original key must be specified. If the correct key is supplied then the data is restored to its original form.
