ccrypt is a utility for encrypting and decrypting files and streams.
|
||
|
|
It was designed to replace the standard unix crypt utility, which is
|
||
|
|
notorious for using a very weak encryption algorithm. ccrypt is based
|
||
|
|
on the Rijndael cipher, which is the U.S. government's chosen
|
||
|
|
candidate for the Advanced Encryption Standard. This cipher is believed
|
||
|
|
to provide very strong security.
