Windows Encrypting File System
Windows Encrypting File System (EFS) is a Microsoft XP NTFS-based technology that enables a
user to encrypt the contents of a folder or a file with a private key code known by the user who
encrypted it. EFS uses the Data Encryption System (DES) algorithm to encrypt files and folders.
Windows EFS can use any of the Windows Cryptographic Service Providers (CSPs) available on
the system. Those CSPs enable encryption algorithms with keys lengths from 40 – 128 bits.
