Encodor : Online Text Encryptor

    The size would be perfect for iPhone users if they had the ability to copy and paste!

    simple interface, hard to break encryptions, not your everyday cipher

    This is a nifty app, easy to use. I would like to know what encryption method it uses. It may be not very secure.

    Please be aware that this site is utterly INSECURE! The plain text AND password are sent unsecured over the Internet, which basically means anybody connected to the net can read it. You can confirm this by viewing the source and seeing that there is minimal processing on the form before it is submitted, or by using an HTTP monitor or port sniffer and watch your plain text go right out onto the net.

    You really need to be wary of any online encryption service: the chances that someone will have access to your unencrypted message is very high, and even if its sent securely to the server, who’s to say they aren’t snooping your data?

    Finally, most of these services don’t even bother mentioning what encryption scheme is being used: which probably means they’re using one that some half-wit came up with and never bothered exposing to academic inspection to determine whether or not it’s actually strong against attacks.

    Shame on encodor.com for misleading users, and shame on makeuseof.com for not bothering to check into this at all.

    This Brian guy needs to take some medicine for his paranoia. Encodor is not a babysitter and doesn’t claim anything except for what’s in that small print. How is that misleading?! Are they hiding something you know that we don’t? What do you expect for free? If you don’t like it, don’t use it and stop being a hypocrite telling other people what to do.

      It’s no more paranoid than anyone using this service. Why would you be encrypting if you wanted anyone to be able to read it?

      The implicit purpose of the site is to protect private data, when the actual function of the site is to take said private data and broadcast it onto the Internet where it is vulnerable for pretty much anybody to read. That is very much misleading. Maybe there’s no explicit promise, but somebody who doesn’t know how the Internet works would find this site and assume that it was a way to protect sensitive data, which is exactly what the review here on makeusof says.

      Somewhat off topic, but I never told anyone what to do, I’m just adding some much needed additional information on the service being discussed here, so people can decide for themselves whether or not to use it. Also, a “hypocrite” is someone who preaches one thing and does something contradictory. So even if I was telling anyone what to do, that would make me bossy, not a hypocrite. I’m only telling you this because arguments (and insults) are much more effective if they don’t make you sound like an idiot by using words incorrectly.
