Question

What is the best encryption solution for both PC and mobile?

Aug 4, 2016 8:00PM PDT

I am a professional working in the financial sector, dealing with spreadsheets of sorts (balance/legal). Looking for file encryption solution that works across multiple platforms (in terms of OS and PC/mobile) so that my clients may have it too and possibly free? Simple to use as well. Your help is massively appreciated!

Answer
Veracrypt and Cloakapps are some of the best
Aug 4, 2016 9:13PM PDT

I have been working in the IT industry and i must say that there are currently many great encryption solutions out there. If you're looking for one that is already big in the market, then i suggest VeraCrypt. Veracrypt has been one that i've been using since truecrypt and my college years.

But if you want a password-less encryption app/computer program, then i suggest Cloakapps. High-level encryption is used so you don't have to worry about anything else. I haven't used Veracrypt ever since i discovered Cloakapps and and that has been almost a year ago.
