Beyond FTP Script
Editor - Encrypt_Files Command
Back
to Feature Tour


The Encrypt_Files command is used to create compressed,
encrypted archive_files that can be safely moved on any public medium. The
encryption is based on the same key technology already implemented in Beyond
FTP. These archives may then be decrypted with either Beyond FTP scripts or
Beyond Encryption.
The Using_Key parameter is not required if the archive already exists.
However, if you provide a different key than the one originally used to
encrypt the file, the new key will override the previous encryption.
Warning: Do not use a key that is also being used for
Beyond FTP server communications! These keys may be updated and changed in
ways you do not expect. ALWAYS USE A KEY WITH A KNOWN PASS PHRASE! This will
prevent key retirement or secondary key demotion from making your archive
inaccessible! Be sure to save your pass phrases as you generate new key
values!
