Toucan

sync, backup and secure, all in one place



Toucan is a custom built portable app for advanced users to synchronise, backup and encrypt their data, wherever they are.

Important Note For 1.1 Upgraders: All encryption in Toucan 1.1 used Blowfish and as such if you wish to decrypt files encrypted with Toucan 1.1, you must select Blowfish as the decryption routine. Failure to do so could result in corruption of your files.

Features

Toucan is a small utility allowing you to synchronise, backup and secure your data with more options than the built in suite utilities. It is split up into 5 tabs, allowing you to easily find the function that you want. This version features:

  • Four synchronisation modes, copy, update, mirror and equalise.
  • Backup and restore in industry standard zip and 7-zip files
  • Encryption using the BURP updated blowfish algorithm
  • Command line support, allows you to create a batch file for repeated jobs
  • Portable variables, point to places on you USB drive no matter what its drive letter is

Encryption Note: The encryption methods used by Toucan are secure. If you lose your password, you lose access to your data. The files are encrypted such that the decrypter can not tell if your password is correct, so if you enter an incorrect password it will corrupt your files. Always be sure to back up your data.
