BeSafe (from Beiks electronic safe) is a program for encrypted storage of sensitive data. It allows quick reference to information like PIN numbers, accounts, passwords, alarm codes etc., while protecting it even in case of device loss or theft. People normally use Word for keeping that data, but the truth is that Word offers very little protection. Quite at the other end, BeSafe guarantees nobody will learn your secrets even if you lose your device!How does it work?Unlike Word and other data-entry applications, BeSafe keeps its data encoded with a secret code (password). The decoding password is only in your head and therefore could not be hacked even by having physical possession of the device itself. And by using one of the strongest encryption algorithms in the word - the RIJNADEL encryption algorithm - you know that with BeSafe your sensitive information is in safe hands.Features:Allows you to remember only one password and easily lookup any other.No option to "hack" the program - the only unlocking key is in your head; every other entered key would simply display garbage.Uses the extremely strong Advanced Encryption Standard (read facts)Easy to operate, interface similar to WordData could organized in different categories.Configurable automatic program shutdown for improving securityUnder development: centralized data propagation server (for enterprises)Free* updates for registered users.A few useful notes regarding data protection:It is a known fact that the weakest part of any security system is usually the human factor. Here are a few advices you may find valuable:Never choose a password that can be easily related to you, such as a birth date or a name of relative;Never write down your password on a yellow note or in a text file on your desktop ;-) The longer your password is, the higher protection you will get. Choose wisely between convenience and protection; we recommend at least 4 characters;Every protection is a knife with two edges; make sure you really remember your password, because if you lose it, you will lose your data too.*Conditions apply: minor application updates will be free, the company reserves the right to charge for major upgrades.Related Products:BeSafe for PalmOSBeSafe (MIPS)BeSafe (ARM)
