Send secure Email the simplest way

Have you ever wanted to send secure e-mail but dint know how to do so or use encryption keys. logo

Then say bye bye to the older methods of sending encrypted e-mail.Welcome Send.™. It doesn't require the use of  encryption keys and other software's just a web browser will do.

Here is what they say about there service.

It's not that there aren't other secure methods to send an email… It's just that they're too hard to use.

We think everyone should be able to send a secure email…and we all have better things to do than spend an afternoon installing and configuring an encryption solution.

Before Send.™, the process of sending a secure email was complex as illustrated by the chart on the generic_flowright: 

But why subject yourself (and your recipients) to such an arduous process? And what happens if your recipients want you to use a different solution or the solution you used isn't compatible with their system?
Send.™ is Different…
We don't require you to maintain encryption keys.
Though we think the public/private key method works, we also think it was created for geek's and technicians.

Send.™ is compatible with all email solutions including web mail.
Anyone with a browser and an Internet connection can use Send.™ and, unlike other available solutions, Send.™ requires no software downloads or additional system configuration.

The service is easy to use.
We created Send.™ because the previous process for sending secure messages was too difficult. Our studies suggest that people will not send encrypted messages if the process is even marginally more difficult than normal. Simply put…security is important, but cannot impede productivity.

Send.™ is the only free and easy way to send a secure message.

You can read more here @about

 

If you are a new to all these then There must be certain questions floating in your head?

What is wrong with regular email?

With very few exceptions, email is both sent and stored in plain-text. This creates the potential of your email being read by a laptop thief, a hacker, or even a nosey IT professional. Sure, not every email you send contains sensitive information - and we don't encourage you to encrypt all of your email - but almost all of us from time to time need to send information that we need to make sure only the intended recipient is able to read… and that's where Send.™ comes in handy.

 

Why should I encrypt my email?

Anytime your email contains sensitive information your message should be encrypted. Some examples are:
Passwords / Social Security numbers
Financial Documents / Tax Returns
Proprietary Information
Designs & Strategic Plans
Wills & Testamentary Documents
Bank Account numbers, etc.
Additionally, local and federal governments are enacting consumer protection laws that require encrypted email communication with clients and customers. Some professional industries are specifically prohibited by law from sending confidential information over unencrypted email (Banks, Physicians, etc.)

 

Who can read the message once it is encrypted?

Once encrypted, only one person can read the message - your intended recipient. Even after the message is received by the intended recipient, the message is still secure. No other user of Send.™ can read the message. If the message is forwarded to another email address (or intercepted in transit) - only the original intended recipient can read it.

Hide your important images with dos

So you have a image precious image stored up in your computer and want to hide it from others then you might just like our way of hiding files using the dos only.

 

Requirements.

A image file.
A good text editor (notepad will do)
Dos

 

What it does


This trick will convert an image file into an not understandable file See the image for more details
beforehiding afterhiding

           BEFORE HIDING                                                       AFTER HIDING

How to do it.

If you have read my article of hiding your documents using notepad then,this trick will be easy to follow.In this article I will be showing you,how to hide images in a txt format or any other format and make the image undetectable. Are you ready - Let's begin.

first move your images to c drive.[Create a backup of your image i will not be responsible if it is lost.]
Click on start then on run then type cmd
now type cd\ [press enter]
now take note of your image name and extension lets say techgeektricks.jpj
now under cmd - command prompt
type 

ren techgeektricks.jpj techgeektricksjpj.txt           

[press enter]

Ren command on command prompt is used for renaming the files.Here techgeektricks in the file name
and jpj/txt is it's extension. I have named the out put file as  techgeektricksjpj so that while converting it back to image format it becomes easy.

Now go to the location where your image was located and try to view it.You will notice that the image has changed into a text file.

To get your image back is simple just go to ms dos prompt go to c drive an then type ren techgeektricksjpj.txt techgeektricks.jpj

 

Where to use it?

You can use it to send images to your friends computer hiding it from spying eyes or you can just keep it in your  computer I bet no one will ever find out what is inside those text files unless you tell them it is an image or so.

 

Extra notes.

You can change the .txt extension to .mp3 or any other extension.

If you change the code or fiddle with the code which you get when the image is changed to .txt extension then the image will be  lost forever.So be careful

If you want to send the image hidden as .txt file then you must attach the file itself if you give your friend the code (i.e .txt code) It will not work.

Hide files and folders

Want to hide folders,files?read futher

This article is also for a newbibe so if you are bit geek than don't read this article.


Hiding a folder.
Steps
  • Create a folder name it techgeektricks. (don't tell me how!and name it techgeektricks afterwards u can change)
  • Right click on it and click on properties.
  • Properties dilog box will appear.
  • click on hidden under attributes.
  • click on ok and then apply.
now just referesh your folder is gone.
So u wanna Get it back
there are two ways for this:
First way using address bar
[note:- suppose you have created techgeektricks folder under c:/ directiory(if not do it now it will confuse you afterwards if you are a total newbibe)]

so it is under c:/ directory]
Now on the address bar type


C:\techgeektricks


Now you are under your hidden folder

now do what ever you want ,put whatever you want.


second method:- Folder options


[note:-you have created techgeektricks folder under c: directiory]


  • now click on tools.
  • then on folder options
  • click on view tab
  • now see the list under advance settings
  • Hidden files and folders
  • then click on Show hidden files and folders
  • click on apply and then ok.
  • your folder is displayed.

[TIP: make sure you disable it after doing your job]

Advantage of first method over second method:-
in the first medthod you can directly access the folder without changing the properties on the whole. The second method you have
to change the properties which will affect all the folders and files so i you forget to disable everyone can see it. so I Would suggest you to go for the first method.

HOW TO HIDE FILES

Just follow the method of hiding folders on files and it will also be hidden;
