Computer security is important in this day and age.  The Internet, junk email, and peer to peer file sharing programs can be teeming with viruses and other malware, itching to infect your computer.  The average person who purchases, or already owns, a computer most likely has the standard security fare.  This would include defenses such as anti-virus, anti-spyware, and a firewall. 計算機安全是很重要的在當今這個時代。互聯網上，垃圾郵件，和點對點文件共享程序，可以有很多的病毒和其他惡意程式，發癢感染你的電腦。平均的人購買，或已經擁有，一部電腦最有可能是有標準的安全車費，這將包括防如防病毒，防間諜軟件，以及防火牆。

All right, so with our defenses up, and current updates, we are ready to stave off attackers.  Seems like something is missing, does it not?  It might be time to look at one more line of defense, but not something everyone considers.所有權利，因此，我們的防了，而且當前的更新，我們已準備就緒，以避開攻擊。好像事情是失踪，難道不是嗎？可能是時間來看看多道防線，但並非每個人都認為。

AxCrypt is a freeware file encryption utility that locks down file and folders.  It is a very lightweight program, that takes up little space on your hard drive, and is not that memory hungry, compared to other tools. axcrypt是一個免費的文件加密工具的鎖下來的文件和文件夾，它是一個非常輕盈的計劃，即佔據了狹小的空間對你的硬盤驅動器，而不是記憶餓了，比起其他的工具。

Installing the program on your Windows computer adds the AxCrypt option to your right-click menu.  You can encrypt files and folders rather quickly with this method.安裝程序對你的Windows計算機加入axcrypt選擇你的右點擊菜單，你可以通過加密的文件和文件夾，而不是很快用此方法。

The first three choices on the right-click menu encrypt objects in a jiffy.  There are slight differences between the three though.  Choosing the Encrypt option will encrypt the selected file or folder.  Encrypt a Copy will create a secured copy of your selection in the same directory you are working in, with the same name, except with an .AXX file extension.  Should you pick “Encrypt copy to .EXE”, AxCrypt will create a self-extracting executable file, that can be used on another computer, without the need for AxCrypt being installed.首三個志願上按右鍵菜單加密物體在jiffy有輕微三者差距雖然，選擇加密選項，將加密選定的文件或文件夾。加密一份拷貝將創建一個拷貝擔保你的選擇在同一目錄，你的工作，具有相同的名稱，除與一個。 axx文件擴展名。您應該選擇"加密拷貝給下生成" ， axcrypt將創建一個自解壓的可執行文件，即可以用在另一台計算機上，而不需要axcrypt正在安裝。

After you have chosen your particular format, AxCrypt will ask you for a pass phrase.  Looking over the help menu will give you a general idea of how long the security phrase needs to be to get the full 128-bit strength encryption.  I would recommend using a 6 or 7 word “sentence”.  This would not read like a true sentence though, it would appear more like a jumble of letters and numbers if printed in text.當你選擇了你的特定格式， axcrypt會問你一個密碼短語。縱觀幫助菜單會給你一個大略的構想如何長期安全短語，必須得到充分的128位加密強度，我會推薦用6或7字"句子" ，這是沒有看過像一個真正的句子，但它似乎更像一個混雜的字母和數字，如果印刷文本。

You can select “Remember this for decryption”, if you want AxCrypt to store the phrase in memory.  It will remove it from temporary (RAM) memory when your computer is rebooted or shut off.  It is imperative that you commit your phrase to human memory, or write it down (not a great practice in computer security, but the next image explains why).  An excerpt from the AxCrypt Help Section further reinforces the importance of remembering your pass phrase.您可以選擇"記住這個為解密" ，如果你想axcrypt存儲短語記憶，它會消除它從臨時（ RAM ）的記憶體，當您的電腦重新啟動或關閉，這是勢在必行，你承擔你的短語給人類記憶體中，或寫下來（不是一個偉大的實踐，在計算機安全，但下一個圖像解釋了為什麼） 。一種摘自axcrypt幫助部分進一步強化的重要性，記住你的密碼短語。

As with some other encryption utilities, AxCrypt allows the user to create a separate, random character key file.  If you use a key file, it would have to be loaded when you wish to decrypt your files or folders.  Should you click on the … box in the pass phrase screen, you will be given the chance to make a key file.  Helpful hint:  For a more hardened security option, keep the key file on a separate device, like a burned CD or USB thumb drive.作為與其他一些加密公用設施， axcrypt允許用戶創建一個單獨的，隨機字符密鑰文件，如果你使用的一個關鍵文件，它必須被加載時，你是否想解密你的文件或文件夾，要你點擊就…方塊中的通行短語畫面中，你將被賦予機會，使一個重要的文件。有益的啟示：一個更堅固的安全選項，保持密鑰文件到一個獨立的裝置，如燒錄的CD或USB拇指驅動器。

To decrypt a file with AxCrypt, right-click on the file or folder, then choose Decrypt.  It will ask you for the pass phrase, and key file if you created one.  There is no random challenge and response type setup, you just have to have the one, or two, needed pieces of information.解密檔案與axcrypt ，右鍵點擊文件或文件夾，然後選擇解密的，它會向您詢問密碼短語和重要文件，如果你創造了一個並不存在的隨機挑戰與回應型格局中，你只需要有一，兩個，因此需要件的信息。

Should you have the need for absolute destruction of a file or folder, this program gives you the option of “Shred and Delete”.  This choice is available through the right-click menu as well.  Please note that this action is very permanent, so use with caution.如果您有需要的絕對摧毀一個文件或文件夾，這個節目讓您選擇的方式"銷毀，並刪除" ，這個選擇是可以通過右鍵單擊菜單以及請注意，這一行動是非常永久保留，因此使用須謹慎行事。

While AxCrypt may seem intimidating, with the lack of a backdoor option, it is an incredibly simple program.  The main program features, being added into the right-click Windows menu, makes it quick and easy to use.  It can give the average computer user more peace of mind in securing data on their computer.而axcrypt似乎是恐嚇，與缺乏一個後門的選擇，這是一個令人難以置信的簡單程序。主程序的特點，被加入到右邊的點擊窗口菜單中，使得它可方便快捷地使用它可以讓電腦平均用戶更安寧的心靈，在保證數據在其計算機上。

You can also check out another cool program that I had written about earlier called TrueCrypt, which you can use to你還可以檢查出另一種清涼節目，我寫了約較早所謂truecrypt ，您可以使用 encrypt files and folders on your computer 加密文件和文件夾在您的計算機上 . 。
