NordVPN, the popular VPN service provider, has launched its latest cybersecurity product — NordLocker. The tool secures all types of files stored on a user’s computer or in the cloud with end-to-end encryption.
NordLocker is designed for both personal use and handling work-related data. With NordLocker, what others see on your computer is secure, folder-like “lockers” which hold your encrypted files and can only be accessed with your master password.
The tool is especially handy for protecting your most sensitive data, including finances, IDs, work files, or any other confidential information.
“NordLocker is not cloud storage. Think of it as middleware that adds a security layer to your data. It never stores your files anywhere. Instead, it lets you keep them wherever you’re used to, only securely.”
Cryptosystem
NordLocker’s cryptosystem uses the most advanced ciphers and principles, featuring Argon2, AES256, ECC (with XChaCha20, EdDSA, and Poly1305), and other creations of modern cryptography. Running on both Windows and macOS, NordLocker supports documents of any type and size.
The new encryption app offers a safe way to share files confidentially. Simply encrypt them first and then send them via email, messaging apps, file transfer services, upload them to the cloud, or use any other way. The data stays protected and impossible to crack until you give someone access to it.
NordVPN is becoming an all-around cybersecurity solution. This year the company announced two other cybersecurity products – business VPN solution NordVPN Teams and password manager NordPass.
