The
message that the user has typed and its possible file attachments are
combined, compressed and then encrypted to form one encrypted file. This
encrypted file has .ndd –ending and is not
executable but needs to be decrypted by EndCryptor on the receiving end. Upon sending
the message the user can either o Press the ‘Send’ –button. EndCryptor
attaches the encrypted file to a new email created by user’s default email
program. EndCryptor places the recipient’s email address in the address field
of the email. The created email envelope is shown to the user. o Press the ‘Save’ –button. The
encrypted file is saved to a default folder. The user sends the file by other
means. The encrypted file can easily be accessed from the Sent-box of
EndCryptor (by mouse drag and drop or copy).
Upon receiving
the message o For Outlook users when an unread email
containing EndCryptor files is clicked a small window titled “New encrypted
mail” appears. The user then presses a button to decrypt the received file. o For users of other email programs or
transportation methods the user has to e.g. double click the received
encrypted file in order to invoke EndCryptor or drag and drop the file to
EndCryptor.
