Boxcryptor is a data encryption tool that can be used for free for private use with a single encrypted folder. A paid version with a larger feature catalog also exists. There are versions for all popular operating systems and smartphones.
The latest version of Boxcryptor can be found in the download area of https://www.boxcryptor.com/de/download/. For university use, employees and teachers of the University of Paderborn have the possibility to apply for the use of the paid version via the IMT. This additionally enables working with encrypted files in a team.


Use with university cloud services[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]

Boxcryptor can be used with cloud services such as Sciebo or the network drive. In addition to personal use, it is also possible to work in a team. Boxcryptor is available as an app in addition to client versions for Windows, macOS and Linux. Please note that the app versions do not give you mobile access to your Sciebo folder or network storage. To use Boxcryptor with Sciebo, you first need to install the Sciebo desktop client on your system. You can find out how to do this in the wiki article Using the Sciebo Client. To use Boxcryptor with the network drive, you have to request and mount it first. See also General information about the network storage (german) and how to mount network drives (german).
