bcrypt 1.1

Bcrypt is a cross platform file encryption utility. Encrypted files are portable
across all supported
operating systems and processors. Passphrases must be between 8 and 56
characters and are hashed internally
to a 448 bit key. However, all characters supplied are significant. The stronger
your passphrase, the more
secure your data.

In addition to encrypting your data, bcrypt will by default overwrite the
original input file with random
garbage three times before deleting it in order to thwart data recovery attempts
by persons who may gain
access to your computer. If you're not quite ready for this level of paranoia
yet, see the installation
instructions below for how to disable this feature. If you don't think this is
paranoid enough.. see below.

Bcrypt uses the blowfish encryption algorithm published by Bruce Schneier in
1993. More information on the
algorithm can be found at Counterpane. Specifically, bcrypt uses Paul Kocher's
implementation of the algorithm.
The source distributed with bcrypt has been slightly altered from the original.
Original source code can be obtained from
