AxCrypt-2.1.1693.0-Setup.exe
It now offers a new feature called MasterKey and New design for Mac and Android users. Master key is a feature which enables business administrators to recover files of the business members.
This eliminates the risk of losing access to critical files. As long as the business has one or a couple administrators who make sure to keep track of their credentials, no documents will ever be lost due to employees leaving or forgetting their passwords.
Keeping your files secured should not be difficult and AxCrypt makes it easier than ever to do so. Open, edit and share a secured file directly with double-click. It will automatically find what Cloud Storage services are installed on your computer and create an AxCrypt folder there.
Sharing a secured file is made directly from the software by choosing the secured file, click the share button and simply select the team member you want to share it to. The recipient just needs a free ID and will be automatically invited via email if necessary. The invitation email contains instructions on how to view and edit the file.
You can store all your passwords and codes online in a secure manner using the password management feature. The appsecures files, individually. However, you can designate folders as ‘secured’. The folders will be monitored for new files, and the app will secure all new files with a single click, or when you sign out.
What`s New
Group Management: It is excited to announce the recent launch of a new group feature for Business users. This feature enables users to create and manage user groups, assign key group roles within teams, and efficiently manage file access within the groups using the Group Master key.
Password Manager: It now offers a state-of-the-art Password Manager as part of its product suite. For just 1 USD per month or 0.83 USD annually, users can enjoy the benefits of a secure and user-friendly password management solution.
