Axantum
Desktop and command-line file and text encryption that password-protects individual files with AES-256
A desktop file and text encryption application and command-line toolkit that password-protects individual files with AES-256 encryption to keep local and cloud-stored files private when moved, copied, emailed or backed up. It is for non-technical desktop users who want simple file protection and for developers and organizations that need to integrate file encryption into scripts or .NET applications. Unlike container-based or operating-system encryption that leaves files unprotected when moved, it encrypts files individually with a .axx extension so protection follows the file, works fully offline with no servers, and is compatible with AxCrypt.
