Simple encryption software for the Mac I am looking for an application which would allow me to encrypt either a file or a folder. Something like right click on a file/folder, select Encrypt, give it a password and ready.

Of course, it should also be able to afterwards decrypt the said file/folder.

Is there such a thing?
You can do it with a .dmg.


Open Disk utility
Select New Image or File > New > Blank disk image
Choose the name, where to put it, the size (it will be pre-allocated)
Choose an encryption
Leave the other settings by default
Choose a password


Now, all you have to do when you want to access that folder, is open the .dmg file.

And it's free.

I found an app that took care of all of that in 2-3 easy steps but can't seem to find it again. You might have more luck.
