Striata Reader
If you receive an email with an attachment with this at the end of it '.emc', it means that the attachment has been sent by Striata and that the attachment has been encrypted with an industrial strength cipher algorithm, called triple DES, which ensures the integrity and confidentiality of your information.

To open this attachment you need the Striata Reader. The Reader will decrypt the information, often with the help of a shared secret, making your information available to you.

The installation process is simple and free. You do not need to register to download Striata Reader and  Full download instructions are provided with each decoder type. Please select the correct decoder for your operating system from the options listed below. For the majority of Windows users, the "Windows small install" is the correct option. However, if you are running Windows 95, 98 or NT4.0, you may have some outdated DLL's, in which case you need to run the "Windows full install".
