If your security is just about confidentiality (other's can't have the content) and you don't have really serious hackers targeting you then probably encrypted Zip archives are good enough. Obviously a good enough password is needed and secure ways for exchanging the password. I would like to suggest OpenPGP as we crypto nerds like to use only the best available options which work with operations against evil state enemies. But most people don't have such serious enemies. Any password will stop almost all third parties. -- /// Teemu Likonen - .-.. http://www.iki.fi/tlikonen/ // OpenPGP: 4E1055DC84E9DFF613D78557719D69D324539450
