Code Co-op Encrypt1.0

Code Co-op communicates between remote sites by email. These email scripts are compressed but not encrypted as a default setting. Starting from version 5.0 scripts can be encrypted but it is done by using the same encryption key which is not recommended if Code Co-op isn’t used in a closed environment. CodeCoopEncrypt allows robust encryption on a project-by-project basis using different encryption keys which solves this issue. Once CodeCoopEncrypt is installed, the user shouldn’t notice any difference until he explicitly enables encryption on projects. Fast and effective Blowfish encryption is used with 256-bit encryption keys and every script is encrypted with a unique and securely generated random encryption key. This makes unauthorised decryption of scripts virtually impossible. After decryption, file integrity is checked using a 256-bit secure hash fingerprint called SHA-256. Project encryption is enabled simply by adding a 1-line entry in a simple text configuration file. This includes the project name and a passphrase (used to generate the 256-bit key).
