I have accidentally shredded a file. How can I recover it?
Unfortunately, there is no way anyone can recover a shredded file. It is for this reason that we recommend that users be extremely careful while shredding files.

I need to send some confidential data to my associate. Does he also need a copy of the program?
No. You can make a self-extracting encrypted file and mail it to your associate. All he or she has to do to access the data is enter the password. In order to help your associate guess the password, you can even enter the riddle field which points towards the password.
Alternatively, you can create special Secure IT encrypted files. You can even mail these as secure attachments to anyone. These secure e-mails can be decrypted by DeCypherIT, a free decryption utility from Cypherix.

How long can my password be?
The maximum length of a password can be 100 characters. You can even have a sentence as a password, provided the total length (including the spaces between words) is 100 characters.
