KEncFS(System Software)
DEVELOPMENT OF KENCFS IS FINISHED ================================== This is the latest version of KEncFS. KEncFS was born to QT4 and KDE4. Today QT5 libraries and KDE5-Plasma are now so widespread and more parties reach me requests to make KEncFS compatible with the latest environment. For this reason, I decided to suspend the development of KEncFS and begin a new project called KEncFS-Plasma, which, in his first public version (2.0.1) will be identical to the last version of KEncFS, but optimized for QT5 and KDE5 libraries -Plasma. For KEncFS-Plasma, please see https://www.linux-apps.com/p/1170068/. What Is This? ============= KEncFS is a gui frontend for encfs. With KEncFS you can easily create, mount, umount and delete your encrypted filesystem. Now it works in KDe4 and in KdePlasma5. Use of KEncFS is very simple: to create a new encrypted filesystem you must create new or select two existent dirs, one directory to archive encrypted files and another directory to mount on the encrypted filesystem with encfs (a mountpoint). After this, you can select a conventional ID for your encrypted filesystem and then a password. With KEncFS you can also manage your encrypted filesystem. You can browse, mount, umount, remove from list (not from disk) your encrypted filesystem, in easy way.
