CryptoBuddy Encrypted Format | N/A | Encoded Files |
The CIP .CIP file extension is used by the CryptoBuddy encryption software for files that have been encrypted for data security and privacy. CryptoBuddy is a commercial security encryption program developed by BigBear Security Inc. for Windows-based computers. It uses a range of Crypto Protection Software. This software provides an extra level of protection for sensitive or confidential files.
Encryption Details
CryptoBuddy employs 256-bit AES encryption which ensures that encrypted CIP .CIP files remain unreadable without a valid password or key. The program also features virtual file wiping, using an algorithm designed to obfuscate the original data upon deletion. Additionally, CryptoBuddy provides users the ability to create self-decrypting archives so that these encrypted files can be viewed by recipients who do not have the program installed. Other common file extensions used with CryptoBuddy include CFX,.CKP,.CLA,.CRF, and .CXR.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .CIP) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .CIP extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .CIP file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .CIP extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .CIP extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .CIP file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .CIP file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .CIP file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .CIP file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .CIP file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
