Previously we reviewed a couple of encryption tools like Wave Cipher and Crypter , today we came across yet another great file encryption tool called Conceal. It lets you encrypt your files by using the algorithm of your choice. Simply drag and drop the file to encrypt/decrypt.

You will be able to see  two panels, each for Encryption and Decryption respectively. In order to encrypt the file, drag and drop it to the respective  panel. Once you drop the file for encryption, it analyzes the file type and then it lets you choose the destination path to where the encrypted file will be saved. You must provide a password two times to encrypt the file.

Click the Options button and it will load the list of the encryption algorithms, choose your desired algorithm from here.

It will take time to encrypt the  file, depending on the file size. Once done, you will be shown a confirmation dialog.

Decrypting is easy too, just drag the encrypted file to Decryption pane, enter the password, and it will decrypt the file.

Download Conceal

It works on Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7. Enjoy!

FireFound is hands down the best security add-on for Firefox. It is a recently launched add-on which can track the location of your laptop if lost or stolen. It shows you the approximate geolocation along with the WiFi Network it last connected to.

Once the add-on is installed, you will be asked to create a new account with FireFound(requires only username and password). When done, simply head over to the Options and choose to receive notification when the computer is used more than 2 miles(or any number of miles defined by the user) from it’s previous location.

It can delete all data if you activate the Emergency Data Protection mode from the FireFound Dashboard. You can select which data should be deleted from the Options, when this mode is activated.

Head over to the FireFound page and hit Login, enter the Username and Password and you will be shown the last known location along with the coordinates, IP address, city name, and WiFi network.

All information send or received is encrypted, so there is nothing to worry about the security. You can activate data protection from the main control panel which is located under the My Data tab.

Once you activate the data protection mode, the user who is using the browser will have to provide the password, if the password is wrong, the data which you selected to be deleted will be wiped out.

FireFound

The only feature I would love to see is an option to backup the data before wiping it out. Having said that, I believe this add-on is a must for every user who prefer to protect his data. It can also track your mobile since it also works with Fennec(mobile Firefox).
