### "Easiest way to secure your data files."

August 23, 2022

5.0

We have used Ghost volt for creating and maintaining our data privacy. The platform has effectively provided data encryption ensuring their cyber security. The solution has been effectively monitoring our files and is easy to use.

Pros

Ghost volt is a very reliable solution with a drag and drop user interphase. We use it to enhance the privacy through end to end encryption of our data and only allow controlled access for special users. I appreciate how we can easily share encrypted workflows and files without compromising their integrity. The backend support staff is great.

Cons

It can sometimes be slow when dealing with large amounts of data. It only can only be deployed on windows. Encryption does not apply on file names.

### "Your file encryption at its peak."

August 31, 2022

5.0

It is a a well organized platform for easy navigation and has an intuitive UI. Ghostvolt definitely gets the job done on windows and has prevented a number of malicious attacks on our databases.

Pros

Ghostvolt is simple to use. We can easily encrypt our files in a way that is is as simple as drag and drop. The platform automatically encrypt all our files ensuring the integrity of all our business data and whichever document. I like how we don't have to worry about my personal and the company's privacy as it is totally secured. Ghostvolt provides total protection to my data restricting access to anyone that doesn't have permissions and it offers a way for me to share my secured data with colleagues.

Cons

It works well offline but it isn't available for mac. It also doesn't offer deployments for the cloud.

### "The finest way to encrypt your files within windows."

September 2, 2022

5.0

We deal with large amounts of sensitive files and documentation whose privacy we need to maintain. Ghost volt is used in some departments within my organization to encrypt our files ensuring security. We also use it to share encrypted files with teammates.

Pros

Ghostvolt is very easy to install and has a fine file layout. The tool has excellent functionalities for ensuring that our data is secured. It provides the privacy that we need for our data in just a few simple steps. It is a whole package; cheap, reliable, simple to use and has a very intuitive UI.

Cons

Ghostvolt deployment scope needs expansion. They should also provide deployments within the cloud and mac not just windows and desktop.

### "A useful product from a US-based company"

March 11, 2022

5.0

Pros

It's useful for what it does, and since it's a US-based company, one should hopefully not need to worry about provenance (given that it's a security-critical application)

Cons

It wants to phone home at every startup. While the support team states that it's only checking for updates, this could be a point of concern for a security-critical application. They might want to rethink how they provide updates.

Hi Rajeev, thanks for the review and excellent suggestions. It's very important to keep your software up to date to help protect your data and prevent security breaches. Even more so for security critical applications. We're constantly updating GhostVolt to include new features and bug fixes, but under the hood, we keep GhostVolt updated to the very latest in security standards, for example, when NIST updates their recommendations for how passwords are created, we'll update GhostVolt. That said, we're not a fan of phoning home either. That's why we include the ability to turn-off 'automatically check for updates' and instead, allow users to manually check for updates.

### "An easy-to-use tool to encrypt large files"

March 31, 2022

5.0

Also, it helps us automatically protect folders and gives us access to audit reports periodically. I am grateful to have found this tool.

Pros

GhostVolt Encryption Software is very easy and simple to use. It is a great addition to my security needs. I use it to keep my sensitive data private. The software meets my needs very well. What I like most is that I can use it even offline without any issues. From a friend, I've learned that the integration with One Drive has been enhanced in the updated version. It can now be integrated into a One Drive folder so we can access our private files wherever we are. I will implement One Drive integration as soon as possible.

Cons

It is becoming even more critical to encrypt files in an easy and effective way, with data protection. Currently it does the job, but my suggestion would be to speed up the process
