History
The Eureka project was started in 1994 (under a different name) and in 1999 the official Eureka product line was
began and the product line expanded. While the platform was strictly for Windows, in 2007 the means to produce
cross-platform applications for Macintosh and Linux brought me out of a two year 'retirement' of development. This
Global Edition is the final Eureka product that not only allows all three operating system to use the file system
product, but also incorporates other Eureka products built in to produce a suite of encrypting power.
It would be a good idea to explore all the help topics and become acquainted with all of its features to use Eureka
at its maximum abilities. While there are several good encryption programs out there that concentrate on one aspect of
encryption, this is the only one to incorporate so much, and be able to run on virtually any computer in the world.
Other features under the Utilities menu are Scrambling a file which is mixing up the sequence of characters so that even a text file is unreadable - a neat tool as part of a multiple performed or even by itself and the Eureka Steganographer logic represented by the File/Message Insertion into File and Extract from file options, and a File Shredder to delete files securely. Tools to convert text files from Windows to Mac and Linux, and from Mac and Linux to Windows are also included.
Ways to use Eureka Global
What makes Eureka so special is how all of the various components can be used together to create a true nightmare for any given attacker on your
data. With most programs, once they have broken it the game is over as they only allow you to do one particular thing in only one particular
way. Eureka is very flexible and just to give you an idea of what you can do with it, you can:
do a straight encryption with or without expansion
do a straight encryption with or without expansion and then scramble it
do a straight encryption with or without expansion and then scramble it and then encrypt it again with or without expansion
scramble a file then encrypt it
scramble a file then encrypt it then scramble it again
insert a file or message into a file then encrypt it and/or scramble
encode using Crypt Words and then do a multiple encryption
merge five files together and then re-encrypt the mergefile or scramble
By now you should get the idea that almost any component can then be used with the other components to further secure your data. All you
have to do is use your imagination and Eureka will follow.
I hope you enjoy and use Eureka Global Edition for all your data security and privacy needs. I wish to convey
