Provides AES file encryption for your Dropbox files and folders before they're sent over an unsecured connection.
Formerly known as SecretSync, Viivo is an encryption tool which is compatible with several online cloud storage systems such as Dropbox, Google Drive and Microsoft's OneDrive.
With Viivo, performs steps to your files before they are added to your cloud storage. More specifically, AES 256-bit encryption is applied so that the data will not ever be accessible by snooping individuals or as we sadly now know, government agencies like GCHQ or the NSA... among others.
Using Viivo isn't too complicated. Just add the files and folders you want encrypted into the Viivo folder and you're off to go.
It's worth nothing that even though services like Dropbox do encrypt your data on their servers, the data is not encrypted while in transit making it easy for third parties to see the data. Viivo solves that by encrypting your data locally.
Overall, Viivo is a good thing to have installed and recommended if you plan on storing anything on a cloud server.
