CryptoSuite [v1.000] Released

Website :- http://www.cryptosuite.com

CryptoSuite is an encryption/privacy program I have been working on for the
past year. I have just released the first public version. It currently works
on Windows 98,ME,NT,2000,XP and 2003.

Some of its cryptographic features include :-

* Rijndael with 256bit keys length used in file and instant message
encryption.
* Twofish with 256bit key length used in file and instant message
encryption.
* RSA with 2048bit key length used in instant message encryption.
* SHA256 based HMAC used in instant messaging for packet verification.
* RSA based key exchange used in instant messaging.
* CRC32,ADLER32,MD2,MD4,MD5,SHA160,SHA256,SHA384,SHA512,TIGER-192 hashes

Some of its features include :-
* Archive based file/folder encryption using Rijndael and TwoFish ciphers
with 256bit keys (helpfile contains archive structure)
* Secure instant messaging/real-time chat not vulnerable to any attacks when
used with a known shared secret passphrase. Vulnerable to Man in the Middle
when no passphrase for the server is used.
* Over 10 checksums and hashes to compare files and memory.
* Cryptographic benchmark to compare computers at common cryptographic
operations.
* Secure File Deletion using a custom algorithm which exceeds USA DoD
specifications (read the helpfile for the actual algorithm).
* Hopefully easy to use interface with explorer shell integration. Comments
regarding ease-of-use welcome :)


CryptoSuite uses CryptoPP (http://www.cryptopp.com) for the majority of its
algorithms so whilst CryptoSuite the program itself is closed-source, the
algorithms are freely available to explore. I have also made it a point to
document all the encryption structures I use and how they work, these are
available in the helpfile. If anyone wants to offer any suggestions
regarding the program or perhaps information I should also release that
would be most welcome. Thank you for your time.
