Room 40 Encryption Software

No nonsense, no frills, encryption for the Mac. Now available on the Mac App Store.

Room 40 is encryption software — software designed to keep your important data safe, secure, and away from prying eyes. Without Room 40, whenever you send important documents over email, copy them to portable flash drives, or even let others use your computer, you are potentially giving unknown people a treasure-trove of personal data. Don’t let this happen — with Room 40, you can keep your data safe.

Easy to Use

Room 40’s goal is to make encrypting and decrypting files as simple as can be. For this reason, it is designed to be simple, fast, and modern. The guiding principle behind Room 40 is that you shouldn’t have to figure out how to use it — it should be simple enough for beginners to figure out, but complex enough so advanced users feel right at home. Of course, anything that’s missing in the initial release will be added in updates.

The Vault

Store all of your important documents in one place — the vault. Like a bank vault, Room 40's vault allows you to store your sensitive documents and data so that only you can access it — provided you know the secret password, of course. Using the vault means that all of your sensitive data is kept in one secure location on your computer. The vault even makes it easy to send encrypted copies of files to your friends, family, business partners, or clients.

Store your documents in an encrypted format in the vault
Organize your files in one or more containers — separate your personal and business files, for example
Easily export files from the vault to send to coworkers, family, or friends

No-Nonsense Encryption Wizard

Room 40 doesn't make you jump through hoops and configure lots of silly settings just to get your sensitive documents protected. Don't let software give you grief. With Room 40, you get military-grade document protection using the only encryption standard endorsed by the US government. And if that's simply overkill for you, you have two other encryption ciphers from which you can choose.
