Subject: Encrypting data on a cd
 
All,

I need to encrypt confidential data on a CD.
What would be the best way of doing it, i.e. which software?


Kevin

Well, I was going to say Winzip/PGP or tar/gnupg, but if there was a
standard header on the tar/zip file wouldn't that give an attacker a
crib?
