If I use BestCrypt while connected on the Internet, is there any way to access data inside of container by some strange third party software?
There may be two possible configurations on your computer at the moment when you are accessing the Internet resources (when the risk of unauthorized access to your data appears): First, if you have the BestCrypt container mounted – at this moment the BC logical drive looks like any other regular drives on your computer. For instance, all disk utilities could not find the difference between BestCrypt drives and usual hard drives. Therefore, if some Java applet loads on your computer at this moment, it potentially able to access the data located on the BestCrypt drive. You should use a firewall software for full protection. Second, if all of your BestCrypt containers aren’t mounted. In this configuration all your data stored in the encrypted container are absolutely inaccessible for viewing by any tools. Even if the BC container is stolen by hackers using network, they won’t be able to decrypt the data, because of the strong encryption algorithms implemented in BestCrypt software.
