Question on file encryption. We want to add a layer to our 
file security.Our hard disks are encrypted and we would 
like to add single file encryption.

I want to know why you want to add one more layer of 
file security. If your Hard disk are already encrypted then
with a strong encryption then you don't need the extra 
Encryption.


What is the best product that would silently encrypt and 
decrypt on-the-fly so it's transparent to the users?

I recommend you use PGP disk ecnryption.
It has whole disk enceyption as well as it can create files that 
Can act as drives and are assissable using a drive letters.

Type one password and you can access the files just like on hard disk
Not exactly transpertnt but almost there and very good product with 
Exceptional support.
