Agile Web Solutions takes over development of Knox

Well, I think I found one really interesting feature. It'll expand the size of the vault. Start it out small and just increase it if it needs more space. That's nice.

I'm trying to keep an open mind, but I'm not sure I understand the benefit that truecrypt doesn't already provide.

Is the Knox code public? I personally would not trust any encryption system what doesn't have its code publicly available.

"In fact, the two utilities compliment each other"

Really? They say nice things about each other?

At the risk of sounding like a "me too," what do ANY of these third-party applications offer over Disk Utility, Automator, and a proper understanding of how Spotlight works? Is it just the convenience of putting everything together in one place, like Cocktail does for system preferences? Perhaps, but it sure ain't 35 bucks worth of convenience.

Is it possible for you to write a detailed article by comparing the features of both Knox and Espionage .

By the Knox was being sold at $20 (initial offer) instead of the presently priced $30 . Source : http://macappdeals.com/?p=9005 (Source of source: http://blog.sair.am/archives/2010/05/knox-from-the-creators-of-1password-is-on-43-off/ )

Presumably 1Password and Knox do more than say nice things about each other, in which case they "complement" each other, not "compliment".

Is there any reason I should use Knox over the completely free TrueCrypt? I'm not being snarky, but I really don't see any advantage. TrueCrypt has more features, and seems to offer slightly better encryption methods. The only tradeoff is a slightly less pretty UI.

Espionage does mostly the same thing, and it has application templates to encrypt a particular application's files. And it's cheaper. I don't think it has the Spotlight integration but if I'm going through the trouble of securing my files, I probably know where to find them and don't need to use Spotlight.

Not trying to convince people who are not interested... but if you decide Knox is for you, buy today for %14 discount and use the coupon code iSlayer for an additional %20 discount. Price before discounts $34.95, price after, $23.96. (at least that's what it was for me)

Hope that helps.
