System Requirements
-------------------
CryptStream will function with any system running OS/2 2.1, 2.11, OS/2 Warp
Version 3 or later.

What is CryptStream
-------------------
CryptStream is an easy to use cryptographically secure file system for OS/2,
based on Carbon Based Software's popular, proven and highly regarded ZipStream
(tm)  compression file system product, the winner of the OS/2 Magazines Disk
Compression Shootout (October 1995).

The CryptStream product provides transparent file based DES (Data Encryption
Standard) encryption in a very easy to use manner while providing the high
strength security needed to meet the demands of corporate users.

Data and applications can be stored in encrypted form using CryptStream so
that they can only be accessed again with correct authorization. The method of
granting access to files is by means of a logon to the CryptStream system.
Once logged on, CryptStream will transparently allow access to the encrypted
data and applications. Conversely, unless logged on, access to encrypted data
and applications will not be possible as CryptStream has not been authorized
to decrypt the data transparently.

CryptStream protects systems against:
  * Information Theft
  * Privacy Compromise
  * Unauthorized Use

Features
--------
  * DES Encryption.
  * Object Reuse Protection  (deleted files are overwritten).
  * Supports HPFS (High Performance File System) and FAT (File Allocation
    Table - i.e. DOS) File Systems.

  * Supports Long File Names.
  * Supports Extended Attributes.
  * Automatic Encryption of New Files.
