BestCrypt creates and supports encrypted virtual disks, which are visible as regular disks with corresponding drive letters (for example, D:, K:, Z:, i.e. with any drive letter that is not used by another system device). The data stored on a BestCrypt volume are stored in the container file. A container is a regular file, so it is possible to backup, move or copy it to other disk (CD-ROM or network, for instance) and continue to access encrypted data using BestCrypt.

BestCrypt supports the following encryption algorithms: GOST (256-bit key) in Cipher Feedback mode and RIJNDAEL (256-bit key), IDEA (128-bit key), Blowfish (256-bit key), Blowfish-448 (448-bit key), Blowfish (128-bit key) DES (56-bit key), Triple DES (168-bit key), CAST (128-bit key), TWOFISH (256-bit key) in Cipher Block Chaining mode.

Major Features:

1. Reliable Encryption:
   • BestCrypt encrypts data using a choice of several encryption algorithms (AES, Blowfish, Twofish, CAST and others). Every algorithm is implemented with the largest possible key size defined in the algorithm's specification. BestCrypt v.8 can utilize LRW Encryption Mode,which is designed specifically for applications working on disk sector level and is more secure than other popular modes like Cipher Block Chaining (CBC) mode.
2. Convenient Storage & Access:
   • Data encrypted with BestCrypt is stored on the disk in a container file so that it is possible to backup the container, move it, or copy it to another disk (CD-ROM or network, for instance) and continue to access your encrypted data using BestCrypt.
   • Thanks to container-level compatibility on different platforms, BestCrypt container files may be moved between any computer or storage media, on a variety of supported operating systems. Whether you're using Linux kernel version 2.2.x or the latest version of Windows, your BestCrypt container files will continue to work as you expect.
   • Any free drive letter in the system may be used to mount and to open an encrypted file-container for access. With BestCrypt, you can mount file-container as a subfolder on NTFS disk. When the virtual disk is opened, you can read and write data as if it were a conventional removable disk.
