The u.trust LAN Crypt system
u.trust LAN Crypt encrypts files and directory contents for secure storage and confidential transport, regardless of the target system/location (local hard disk, external storage device, network share, mobile device).

What’s new

Support for “Hold your own key” (HYOK) in the cloud-managed version.
