Features and Benefits
Key features: - Disk Firewall
protects your data from illegal copying, viruses and spyware by
maintaining a white-list of applications which are allowed to access
the encrypted disk. More details about Disk Firewall…
- Authenticity verification for Windows applications. This feature verifies whether a trusted application is authentic, and it is indeed the program that was once added to the white list. This way, Private Disk protects the data from threats that come from compromised trusted applications (such as a program infected with a virus).
- PD File Move: organize your documents, and securely migrate them to a protected environment. The utility automatically finds the files you need, encrypts them, and then wipes out the originals, leaving no trace of their presence. File Move makes data migration simple and effortless; no file is left behind by accident, your privacy is guaranteed. More info about PD File Move

all the cryptographic components applied in this encryption software. Why use NIST certified encryption software?

the most secure encryption algorithm applied today, chosen as a

No backdoors
Private Disk does not contain any backdoor. Unlike many other encryption products, Private Disk does not contain backdoors or government induced escrow keys that would allow the police, or any other authority to decrypt your confidential information. Dekart is a company located in the Republic of Moldova, our state does not have laws that force us to add backdoors to encryption software. This means that your data are well-protected, and that the security of your private information has no breaches. Private Disk's encryption mechanisms were certified by NIST, which guarantees that your data are protected against non-government controlled access attempts too.
Use cases (based on real customer experience and testimonials)
USB flash drive encryption = Private Disk + USB flash drive
The key-detail of this use case is Private Disk's ability to run directly from a removable disk and mount the encrypted disk on another computer without having to install the application locally.
The encrypted disk resides on the same USB flash drive, therefore the bundle is entirely self-contained, which means that additional media does not have to be transported, saving both: space in your pocket and the time needed to access your encrypted files.
CD/DVD encryption = Private Disk + CD/DVD
Private Disk is distributed on compact disks that have a pre-installed read-only encrypted image and a startup script that automatically mounts the virtual drive and starts a defined application when the disk is inserted into the CD- or DVD-ROM.
Disk Firewall is configured to allow only the applications that are stored within the encrypted disk, which guarantees that the distributed files will not be copied or modified.
This makes Private Disk ideal for the secure distribution of brochures or other presentations that are not intended to be viewed by the public.
Dekart Private Disk is an affordable, powerful and easy-to-use solution
to one of your serious security problems. Order your copy now, or
