Is there a free utility which recipients of a ZIP archive can get to do no more than extract the files from AES-encrypted ZIPs?
-------
I use Winzip Pro 10.0.6698 and create standard archives with a ZIP file extension which I send as an email attachment. I do not create self- extracting EXE files as many company firewalls block EXEs attached to emails.
For sensitive data, I use either 128-bit AES or 256-bit AES encryption in Winzip.
When my receipents do not have Winzip they find they can not open the AES-encrypted zip file. How do I get around this? Is there a free utility which recipients can obtain in order to only extract files from my AES-encrypted ZIPs?
