Thank You for visiting the Official Turbo-Secure Project Page!
=== Intro: ===
In Summery, Turbo-Secure is a series of Nautilus Scripts that allow you to safely and securely encrypt and secure your data. Its primary focus is on EASE-OF-USE and SPEED! It comes in 2 Editions, GPG Edition and SSL Edition. Just select which one you want to use when you run the installer, you can install both if you want (just install it again using the other option) :)
=== What is Encryption? ===
Encryption is the process of scrambling up data using a password (Encryption) so no one can use it until they de-scramble it (Decryption) using the same password.
=== Why I Made This Project: ===
Gnome currently has a GUI program called "sea-horse" that does this exact thing, but from experience I think its way to complicated for new users and a huge hassle just to preform simple secure encryption. I also tried "EncryptDecrypt Reloaded" by rmanola but could not get it to work, then I tried "Encrypt/Decrypt Files" by Guci, but it lacked a lot of functionality. Looks like ill have to make my own!
=== Depends On: ===
For the program to function correctly, you need Gnupg Utilities installed (They are by default on every Distribution iv tested), you also need a version of Zenity (Also installed by default). Also Nautilus is required.
=== How to Install: ===
Just download the .sh script then run it. It will guide you though the simple and quick installer that will install the nautilus script. Very easy and very simple. You can then access it from the right click "Scripts" context menu.
=== Features: ===
- No need to worry about Keys
- Option to store the password in the script for ease of use
- Many encryption Types and strengths
- Compression options
- Armor options
- Easy Installer
=== Translations: ===
The project is open to translations. Please send me a Private Message with your personal e-mail and and language and I will mail you more information.
=== Bugs and Feedback: ===
I have tested this program the best I could and so far I have found it reliable. But Encryption can be tricky business, if you forget or loose your password, its all over (basically). Make sure to keep backups. I'm not liable if anything goes wrong. If you find any bugs or have any suggestions or anything else you want to say, feel free to comment.

====== v1.5 ======
- Now downloads and installs "wipe" to securely remove unencrypted files after encryption
- Turbo-Secure-Text Released to encrypt raw input text. :)
====== v1.4 ======
- Added a Password Hashing option (Your password gets boosted to 100+ characters and still works normally :D
- Few other minor fixes ;)
====== v1.3 ======
- Merged the code together into one installer and improved error messages.
- If you use the script on a empty blank area it will bring up a browse dialog box to encrypt a folder/file.
====== v1.2 ======
- Fixed bug not hiding the password on the password prompt
- Released Turbo-Secure SSL Edition!
====== v1.1 ======

I've already a gpg key in seahorse, and I was wondering if there is a way to make the script use it and so to avoid requesting the password for encryption?

Maybe down the road I could develop Turbo-Secure (Asymmetric Edition) which would generate a key or allow you to import a key but Im currently caught up in to Win2-7 v6.5 development so it may be a while.

Finally I tried Encrypt-Decrypt reloaded and it suits my need. I changed it a bit so that it does not ask anything for the encryption and give some feedback (zenity progress) when wiping large files which could take some time.
I'll appreciate to test your next version.

I would really like to know why they keep doing this?
Well links reposted. I was surprised I still had the installers on my HD lol.

AFAIK I designed this program myself using GPL tools so I have NO idea how it could break copyrights?

Basically when you install the pack, it asks you after you select your password storage method if you want to hash it or not. If you say "Yes", what it does is it takes your password (usually 4-7 characters) and boosts it up to 100+ characters! And it uses "that" larger password to encrypt the data. Then when you go to decrypt it, it takes your password, boosts it and then tries to decrypt and if its the same password, it works. :)
Another Advantage to this is if you tell the script to remember your password, and you decide to Hash it, It hashes it and stores the hash in the script so if you open the script, or someone else does, they "will" see the password that does the decrypting...but they wont know what your password was that generated the hash, so you can use your standard password and not worry about anyone knowing what it is!
You can even try it yourself on a terminal:
echo "Hi" | sha512sum
Who knows whats coming out next!

Both the SSL and GPG versions are bundled up together in one installer. Just select what Standard you want to use. You can even install the script twice using GPG then SSL. (The context menu will say what is what).
Also the other big features, is usually you have to right click and run the script on a file. Now you can run the script on any empty area and it will bring up a browser window and let you encrypt a file by browsing to it. Pretty nifty.
Also the error messages are slightly improved. :)
I also put a copy of the script up for paid download, its the "same version" but the $2.00 USD would count as a donation which would be really helpful.
