Help to decrypt multiple files from Sophos 5.60.01

I need help!!

I had close to 9 GB saved on my work computer. I copied all my files to my passport - Sophos Safeguard 5.60.01

I believed it asked for a passphrase but I do not remember what was my passphrase, I have tried all possible passwords and I have no clue how to solve this issue.

All files are encrypted and I cannot have access - This files are very important and they are no longer available on my work computer. I left work and I could not keep there due to security reasons.

I need your help, please.

How can I decryt all files and not use a passphrase. Is that possible?

Thank you,

Juliana

  • Hello Juliana,

    the purpose of encryption is to prevent unauthorized access to data. Naturally this would be defeated if the data were accessible without the proper key or passphrase. There are no backdoors and thus decryption is (while in theory not impossible) unfeasible even with a few plaintext/ciphertext pairs.

    Unfortunately what you wish for is not possible.
