    I have a friend here who can read Chinese and actually prefers Big5. That is
    not encryption, but translation. If they are using this method they must not
    be serious about security. There are encryption products that are available
    for download off the internet at no charge.

    Subject: [PEN-TEST] Psydo-encyrption?

    I have a client who appears to be encrypting files (.rft docs) by changing
    the default language to Chinese (Big5).

    My question is, having such a file, how do you get it back into English?

    I would like to demonstrate that they need REAL encryption rather than (what
    I believe to be) a trick.
