Hello Everyone, I would like recommendations and suggestions for encrypting a document on a distributed CD. I would like someone to be able to open and read the document only if they have a "password" or secret string or other(?). I understand there is a limit to how secure this really is, but I would like it to be reasonably secure for what it is, and that's why I'm asking the question here.
Down the same lines, I'm wondering if something like AES-256 should be used with several "rounds" (encrypting the encrypted data N times) to help prevent (slow down) an exhaustive attack? How is something like this usually done? Any suggestions/recommendations inside or outside the box? It would also be nice if a common, widely available unencrypting tool could be easily used to unencrypt the document if the secret string is known. Thanks! joe.flow...@nofreewill.com -------
