File Content Encryption
Encryption can be performed when files are copied from the left-hand side to the right-hand side. Copying in the opposite direction or using the Restore Wizard will decrypt the files.
Encryption is always done along with compression, although you can use the .zip or .sz file formats without compression too. The recommended encryption method is AES encryption (256 bit). This encryption can be decrypted with some popular zipping tools, such as WinZip, WinRAR, and PowerArchiver (when using the zip format).
The password phrase should be longer than normal passwords since it is used to generate an encryption key. There is no longer any limit in the allowed pass phrase length.
Filename Encryption
You can also encrypt the file and folder names on the destination side. Please note that the encrypted file names cannot be deciphered by a human and will make it harder to handle your backup folders. Use this only if you are absolutely sure that you want to hide and encrypt your file names. The filename encryption algorithm is proprietary. Your file names cannot be recovered with any other tool.
