5.14 Zip Files

When sharing private and confidential documents with others it is often useful to create a zip archive that is encrypted. Whilst this is not a guarantee that the password or the encryption can not be compromised, it provides a level of casual protection if sending the documents by email. For stronger protection use strong encryption like Pretty Good Privacy.
Do note that the zip archive will include the file names in clear text and thus it is best not to name the files that may indicate their contents.
