Encrypt. This option enables high grade password encryption using a combination
of multiply sha512 hashed password, random salt and aes128 CBC encryption.
Passwords up to 500 characters long are supported, and the encryption mechanism
used virtually guarantees that the same file created with the same password
will never be the same. Furthermore, the password hashing is increased
according to the date the file is encrypted, increasing the number of CPU
cycles required for each password attempt in accordance with Moore's law, thus
making the difficulty of attempting brute force attacks proportional to the
power of modern computers.
