Petit hommage à cette époque bénie où les logiciels de chiffrement étaient vendus dans des boîtes gigantesques.
Le Coffre-fort bureautique :
✔ 192 bits
✔ Windows 95
✔ Unix
✔ Java
Le tout avec un visuel qui évoque plus Fort Knox qu'un fichier Excel.
La cybersécurité avait déjà compris une chose :
Le plus dur n'est pas de chiffrer les données…
…c'est de retrouver le mot de passe vingt ans plus tard.

@sebsauvage Tu me fais sentir vieux avec ton tool là. :D

Je l'utilisais quand j'etais sous Windows 2000.

Having some nostalgia for The Palace, almost making me want to try to build something like it myself. Though probably be just me all alone on it if I did lol. Not sure I know anybody else that used it back in the day. #nostalgia #oldsoftware

Just in case you don't have any plans for the next weekends and the Easter holidays and are a sucker for legacy software like me. WinWorld has got software for DOS, 16 bit Windows, OS/2 (They have OS/2 Warp 4.52!) and much much more.

Just gotta say that running Windows OSes on a Mac in VMs .. rocks!

I have clients on Windows and Mac. Been using VMware Fusion for years to run multiple OSes at once and switch between them as needed.

The best part, though, is being able to run old software! I have a copy of #AutoCAD 2004 (from when I worked at #Autodesk 20+ years ago), that runs great in my Win7 VM. I'm also able to run #FrameMaker 12 (2014) .. pre-subscription.
