ResVault-How to encrypt a file for download

Many projects require files to be encrypted within a ResVault Virtual Machine before being downloaded.

On Windows VMs, the 7-Zip tool is used for this.

1. Connect to the VM
2. If you have multiple files intended for the same destination, it is best to put them into a folder.
3. Select an individual file or folder of files and right click.
   

   Right click, select "7-Zip" and "Add to archive..."
4. In the 7-zip options, select:
   

   Be sure to use zip format, AES-256 encryption and a password
   1. Archive format: zip
   2. Encryption method: AES-256
   3. Enter and Reenter a password
5. Click OK
6. 7-Zip will create a compressed file that is encrypted and protected with a password.
7. You can now return to the tiCrypt Connect in your browser and open the Transfer panel. Select the .zip file and click the Download button.
