Encrypted File Info Description

This command-line tool displays information about files and folders encrypted with Encrypting File System (EFS) on NTFS partitions. EFS is a feature of Windows 2000 that enables users to encrypt and decrypt files. Using EFS, users can protect files from unauthorized access to their sensitive data, including from a stolen laptop or external disk drive. In EFS, users work with encrypted files and folders just as they do with any other files or folders, and the encryption is transparent. If the EFS user is the same person who encrypted the file or folder, the system decrypts the file or folder when the user accesses to it later. Unauthorized users, however, are prevented from accessing encrypted files or folders. The user can also encrypt or decrypt a file or folder with the command-line tool cipher, that is included with the Windows 2000. Get Encrypted File Info and try it for yourself to see just how useful it can actually be for you!
