Best way to Encrypt / Decrypt a file
I have an application that transfers some sensitive data in an email file over the internet... I have encoded the most valuable items in the file, but I would like to have the entire file encoded or encrypted.
what is the best way (least resource intensive) to encrypt a binary file's contents and allowing only the reader applicaiton to read it?
The files are very small (under .5 k) and have the data separated by line breaks
