historicalLevel 1

The Vormetric Encryption Expert Cryptographic Module is a loadable kernel module also known as "SECFS" (SECure File System). This module is a file system layer that enforces an access and encryption policy upon selected data on end-user systems. The policy specifies a key to be used when writing data to disk and while reading data from disk. This module contains the Vormetric Encryption Expert Cryptographic Library, which provides all cryptographic services.
