[repost to inform more people about it] An open source data encryption software for steemit users

I repost this article only for informing more people about this software I made.
This encryption tool was developed in Visual Basic 8. This software is to be used  for encrypting any text data. As we know on Steemit Platform we need a very long passphrase to be used. And also  POSTING ,  ACTIVE ,  OWNER &  MEMO private key are very long.  It’s impossible to memorize this passphrases. So, what can we do ? Maximum users saved the data without encrypting it in their note pads, which is very dangerous. If hackers or, anyone get this data then he will gain access our accounts & for a result all accounts shall be compromised. 
So, encryption is very important. Encrypted data can be saved everywhere & also be shared with anyone without any risk. I know there are a lot of free password keepers & encryption programs exist. But, maximum are not open source programs. 
 My main objective is to provide such type open-source program. You may also learn how to develop an encryption tool.

I use AES Rijndael Block Cipher Encryption Algorithm to encrypt text data.
Step by Step Development :
Open a new project in Visual Basic 8. Select “Standard EXE”.
enter image description here
enter image description here
Create two text boxes & two command buttons on the form. Text1 textbox, Text2 textbox, Command1 commandbutton & Command2 commandbutton.
enter image description here
Change the caption of the command buttons from “Command1” to “Encrypt data” & “Command2” to “Decrypt data”.
enter image description here
Add a class module “CRijndael” to the project
enter image description here
Add this following codes to the class module “CRijndael” :

After encryption I got this encrypted data 873B6CC83B0CBDC2CAC0FA1D94D4A7B9C092A6734EEC85480466DFBADCE7B8F179202D1E25AEA7FE354631E0193860ED2FB4226B162504D258A5E80FE0F5CF9D
You can save this data anywhere without any risk.
Now, I’ll decrypt it again –
enter image description here
Look that I successfully decrypt it by getting the text again STM6ipnKtY59NESmg7Km5HjUuYzzRHKd8VYdLNXMyHAGUX7MnDWMh
WARNING !!! I use an encryption key in the code.
‘don’t reveal this key

This code must be different when you make your own software. And you don’t reveal this key. If anyone gets this encryption key then your encrypted data shall be at risk.

Georgia Tech Researchers Succeed in Creating Permanent 4D Printed Objects   image credit :  the merkle Whereas the vast majority of the world is focused on 3D printing, some  scientists and engineers are looking at the fourth dimension. Georgia  Tech is one of the first institutions to allow for shapeshifting 3D  printing. This technology is known as 4D printing, as it allows objects  to change shape once it comes off the printing bed. An intriguing  development, especially when considering how objects can transform  through the use of heat. 4D Printing Will Be The Next Frontier While 3D  printing is quite appealing to a lot of consumers, not all of the prints  come out the way creators Read More   Inmates Hide Self-Built Computers and Abuse Staff Credentials to Surf the Web   image credit :  the merkle Prison staff in Ohio came across a rather interesting discovery  recently.
