It can open a ZIP archive and the containing document inside when you browse for it or compress the Office file straight out to a standard or secure ZIP. The main Office integration feature will add either some menu entries (Office 2003) or a new tab (Office 2007/2010/2013) to your Office applications. There is also an Outlook plugin that can automatically compress attachments into a standard or secure ZIP before sending. You can choose to let SecureZIP automatically open ZIP archive content in an associated program if the archive contains a single recognized file such as a DOC or a PDF. Other than high levels of security, SecureZIP also offers another premium feature which is integration with Microsoft Office via an included PKZIP plugin.

If you wish to know how to export your certificate to another computer, the Comodo Certificates FAQ shows you how.

The certificate is installed on your system directly from the Comodo email and then you can use it to digitally sign your ZIP archive or specific files inside the archive. The good news is you can go to Comodo yourself and sign up for a free Comodo Email Certificate which works with SecureZIP. The SecureZIP program does have a facility to create a Comodo digital certificate on demand but sadly this function no longer works due to the programs age. This means your created ZIPs are digitally signed for extra security. What is perhaps unique to PKWare products, SecureZIP has integrated digital certificate (x.509) encryption with the capability of using digital signatures to distribute more secure archives. ThatвЂ™s useful if you want to distribute one archive and grant different users access to different files inside. Also available is advanced filename encryption and the ability to encrypt only specific files in the archive with different passphrases. SecureZIP can create archives with a good level of encryption via 3DES (168 bit) and AES (128, 192 and 256 bit) which includes the option of a traditional passphrase or a stronger passphrase that can include spaces and other non-alphanumeric characters. You wonвЂ™t find tons of different archive formats supported or fancy options like FTP or disc burning support, just several options for creating standard ZIP archives and securely encrypted ZIP archives. What makes SecureZIP still a viable tool, is as the name suggests, itвЂ™s an archiver that focuses very much on security above anything else.
