KEY TAKEAWAYS
Although hundreds of free encryption software are available, not all meet our expectations. Many of them are vulnerable and can expose your sensitive data to threat actors. After thorough research, I’ve finally come up with the best free encryption tools that most people trust on the internet. So, let’s learn about them one by one.
- VPN Software – It encrypts the data and hides the user’s location, and changes its actual IP address.
- Tor Browser – It is free and open-source software developed to make you anonymous and secure private communication.
- Cryptomator – It’s easy to use and compatible with Android, Windows, macOS, iOS, and Linux.
- VeraCrypt – It adds military-grade encryption to your data and even offers full disk encryption for free.
- AxCrypt – The encryption software automatically protects the files saved on Google Drive and Dropbox.
- 7-Zip – If you are a less tech-savvy person, diving deep into the menu can be pretty intimidating.
- AES Crypt – It is reliable and secure to use software that uses powerful AES-256-bit encryption to secure sensitive files.
