Cryptx 6

Cryptx 6 is out of beta stage and you can download the new version right now. A few bug fixes and explorer integration have been done, so you can directly double click on an encrypted file to open CryptX window. The changes between he beta and this are :

Cryptx 6.0.7 [Apr 2011]
- Explorer integration for Rap File Type.
- BugFix for FileInfoVo.
- ProcessTime in Log file processed properly.

Cryptx 6.0.8 [Apr 2011]
- BugFix for invalid Decrypted file naming.
- After decryption, the decrypted file's info are updated in the UI.
- Using AeLogger 0.4.9.
- BugFix for UI not reflecting updated Destination Location.

CryptX 6 Beta!

    CryptX 6 is finally here. Albeit in Beta version. After almost scrapping the project due to various technical challenges, we have found our way through those and able to make it perform beyond initial expectations.

    Like its predecessor, this version does encryption using the AES Algorithm. Some more work will be done on the application before it is liberated from the Beta Label. But most planned features have been implemented. We are expecting user reviews and suggestions to better understand the product. Checkout some screen shots of the application revealed for the first time.

Cryptx 6

Finally, the most awaited Adobe AIR based development project is about to get released. The latest version of CryptX will be 6 superceding the HTA and C++ based 5.1 Beta. Yes, the last version never broke from the Beta label. It was made as a Proof Of Concept that such an encryption decryption utility could be made, after encryption algorithm security problems from CryptX 4.

CryptX 6 like its predecessor will be using 128 bit AES encryption. Check out some of the features of CryptX 6.

• 128-bit AES Encryption.
• Password used for encryption is not stored in the encrypted file.
• Completely written using Action Script 3 and uses as3crypto library.
• Intuitive UI.
• Desktop integration with Encrypted file.
• Using Green Threads for multitasking support in AS3.
• Improved performance from previous versions.
• Logging Platform support.

Please note that the CryptX 6 does not support file formats from previous versions.

Cryptx 5 - Web 2.0 Logo

   Hey there , for further promotional purposes, we have done a Web 2.0 style logo for the Cryptx 5 release. Its been done using Macromedia Fireworks 8. Hope the promotional stuffs work .....

Cryptx 5 Beta 1 Release

   Cryptx 5 development has come massive distances after the project almost got scrapped due to various problems faced during development. Although there are minor flaws in it, we are happy to release it as a Beta 1 so that developers from around the world can help make this project better.

the download link for the CR5-B1 is as follows :

Screen shot
-------------

   Please understand that this release is not fully complete and has some bugs and problems in it. Some known issues are

* No Help included

* Encryption writes log incorrectly

* Decryption does not write a log

* Need to optimise code for execution pipelines

* command line arguments might be needed to be formatted again

* encrypted file size is larger than original or decrypted file.

Features that are already there include :
-----------------------------------------------

* Rich HTA based GUI

* Work History denoting the various steps that went through the development of the project

* CTimer class to follow time taken for processing the data.

* AES 128 bit encryption

* Encrypted data is stored as HEX for added protection.

* Password is not stored in the encrypted file, only a hashed string. (MD5 can be implemented easily for extra protection of the pasword. It can be done from within the HTA interface).

Hoping for some favourable reply ....

CryptX 5 :: Class Structures revision 0.1.0.2

   Heres the newly revised specification for the class structures for the Open Source encryption software project codenamed SideLiner. Although not much input from the community, i was able to think out some more solutions for possible problems in the structure when implementing 
in C# or Java in later development life of the project.

The changes include :
1. Working around the MI (Multiple Inheritance) problem in C# and Java. 
2. Making the class structure more understandable. 
3. Made the "DiskFile" class abstract. 
4. Added ae watermark in the specification.

So expecting more help from the community out there.





  

Cryptx 5 Class Structures

This is the proposed structure for the Classes for the new encryption software Cryptx 5 – Codenamed Sideliner. This is discussed here so that we can get some expert opinion about the implementation, so that we can go forward with this project without many problems.

The basic concept is the abstract class ‘DiskFile’. It could have a class for calculating the CRC-32 hash of a file that resides on the disk. ‘DiskFileIn’ and ‘DiskFileOut’ are classes that are derived from ‘DiskFile’. MI (Multiple Inheritance) comes into play as we also apply the AES class for encrypting and decrypting of files.

For encryption process, the object of ‘DiskFileIn’ will be the data / source file and using AES, we write out the encrypted data to the object of ‘DiskFileOut’.

For decryption process, the object of ‘DiskFileIn’ will be the encrypted file and we will try to decrypt it with the given key and the AES algorithm. The output data will be written to the object of ‘DiskFileOut’.

‘LogWriter’ is a special type of ‘DiskFileOut’ that writes out the log file for the processes done by the program.

‘CryptxHeader’ is the class that is used to denote the extra information of the original file. It will contain methods to generate and decode data from headers.

‘Timer’ (‘CTimer’) class will keep track of the timing functions and will be used by the ‘LogWriter’ object.

Okay, these are the specifications that have been put forward. Please give your expert comments......
