Download Error: False Positive Alert

If you encounter a "virus detected" error, rest assured, this is a false positive. The issue arises because I used PyInstaller to create the .exe file, which can trigger antivirus software warnings due to the file packing process. The encryption and decryption tool (entool) is entirely safe to use, and this warning can be safely ignored.

Installation

Prerequisites

• Windows operating system
• The provided entool.exe file

Steps

1. Download the executable:

   • Download the entool.exe file from the releases page.

2. Run the executable:

   • Double-click the entool.exe file to launch the application.

Usage

1. Launch the Application:

   • Run the executable file by double-clicking on entool.exe.
   • The main window will open, displaying tabs for different encryption algorithms.

2. Select an Algorithm:

   • Navigate through the tabs to choose between Caesar Cipher, AES, and RSA.

3. Encrypt/Decrypt Text:

   • Enter the text to be encrypted or decrypted in the provided input box.
   • For AES, enter a 16-byte key.
   • Click the "Encrypt" or "Decrypt" button to perform the desired operation.
   • The output will be displayed in the output box.

4. Generate RSA Keys:

   • In the RSA tab, click the "Generate Keys" button to generate a new pair of RSA keys.

5. About the Project:

   • Access the "Information of Project" menu to read about the project and its contributors.
