I'm amazed at the pedantic, if not purile, nature of some of the
contributors to this forum. Seriously, is the subject cryptography or
one-up-manship? The newbie posters here, such as myself, are here because we
apparently believed that we could actually acquire assistance, from those
that have knowledge, about the topic of the forum. Instead there is this
irrelevant game, in which the aim seems to be to deride people by
'correcting' tangental points (thus showing how god-like one is) rather than
trying to help. At any given point in time, everyone was a newbie, is a
newbie and can expect to be a newbie again.

Sheesh! Get a life people!

But I digress...

I think the simple answer to the poster's subject line is that depending on
how much you can afford to spend, get any commercial encryption product that
is based on any of the modern, proven algorithms, and use that. For example,
the PGP corporation can supply products that would be useful. Go to the web
and do some research on what products are around and do the standard
cost-benefit business analysis to determine which products would be suitable
for your specific circumstances. You will no doubt find many matching
products out there.

My company is currently doing such an analysis on the GNUPG and PGP Corp.
offerings at the moment, to see if it is cost-effective to get all our staff
using one of these.
