I want to share a picture or GIF with my friend on Telegram, but I don’t want to do it directly. What can I use?

    That’s not secure at all. For instance Microsoft will brute force the password for all of your zips to check for malware. It takes all of a few minutes to brute force zip encryption

      Note that I said 7-zip, not zip. Are you making that claim for 7-zip?


      Do you have a source for the brute forcing? Because I’m interested. If it’s actually being done I doubt it’d go beyond predefined common password lists or exploiting non-secure passwording.
