## Description

**WP Encrypted Uploads puts your files under lock and key! 🔒 Upgrade your WordPress
file security with cutting-edge AES-128 encryption.**

**This plugin’s got your back, covering a wide range of file types:**

 * Images 🖼️
 * Audio 🎶
 * Video 🎬
 * PDFs 📚
 * ZIPs 🗜️

**You’re the boss! 😎 Customize encryption for each file type and decide which Roles
get the keys to the kingdom.**

**Lightning-fast encryption, even for those giant files? Yes, please! 🚀 This plugin
uses PHP output streams for smooth, memory-friendly file serving.**

### Features

 * **Your files get the VIP treatment with AES-128 encryption.** 😎 Think of it 
   like a super-secure vault for your data.
 * **Control who sees what!** 🧐 Tailor access permissions with WordPress roles –
   you decide who has the keys.
 * **Say goodbye to sneaky peeks!** 👀 Force downloads for those images, videos,
   and PDFs – no more casual browsing.
 * **Big files, no problem!** ⚡ This plugin handles encryption at lightning speed,
   even for those hefty uploads.
 * **Security is its middle name.** 🔒 Rest assured, decrypted files never hang 
   around on your server. Temporary files are used for downloads, then _poof!_ they’re
   gone.

This is an awesome plugin! It worked fine for 1 month, now the .zip files doesn’t
get decrypted anymore upon downloading. So customers are downloading “corrupted”
files. I had to deactivate the plugin and reupload every single .zip file for all
my products 🙁 I am not sure if it happened because of Wordpress/Woocommerce updates,
but as of now, i can only give 3 stars, because the plugin did his job great! Sadly
stopped working for us ..
