Disarming Corruptor
To protect the creative community’s sensitive documents from the prying eyes of law enforcement agencies and patent attorneys, Matthew Plummer-Fernandez developed Disarming Corruptor. This encryption software intentionally inflicts reversible damage on STL mesh files—for instance, schematic drawings of a 3-D printer—and thereby makes them illegible by third parties. Insiders, on the other hand, have no trouble restoring their files.
