XOR Encrypt

XOR Encrypt is a simple tool that can provide a fast way to safeguard your documents, making them unreadable to others. It is one of the many software solutions out there dedicated to data protection, aiming to prevent unauthorized access to private files.

As its name suggest, XOR Encrypt relies on the XOR encryption algorithm, which applies the XOR operator to each character of a text. However, note that this simple obfuscation method is dedicated for general use and should not be used with very sensitive or confidential documents.

One of the main advantages of this application is related to the variate range of supported input formats. Not only that it can encrypt plain text files, but it can also handle HTML and XML documents, source code files (CSS, C, CPP, PY) and even JPEG images.

It features a transparent interface with a minimum set of options, which makes it very easy to work with. Your only task is to select the input file and enter the desired password.

It is advisable that the security key is longer than 8 characters. The longer the password length, the more secure the encryption. The key's SHA256 hash is saved in the input file, so that it can be compared with the provided password for decryption.

XOR Encrypt can be instructed to overwrite the original files or save the output separately. For JPEG images, this option is not available, since this type of file is always overwritten.

XOR Encrypt can help you secure your documents and messages with ease and then decrypt them with just a few clicks.

It can also be used as an obfuscator for your source code, so as to make sure that it is not copied without your prior consent.
