Compressing large files and folders makes them easier to transfer and saves storage space. Choose files from your PC using simple, drag-and-drop functionality or get files you've stored on Box, SkyDrive, Dropbox, Google Drive, CloudMe and SugarSync to zip instantly. Zip files are perfect for sharing because they let you organize multiple files into one convenient package.

Safeguard your private information. Protect your files from unauthorized access by applying banking-level security with FIPS-197 certified 128- or 256-bit AES encryption. For extra security, set your own password policy by defining complexity requirements that WinZip will enforce for you.

Connect to more cloud services. WinZip connects directly to Box, SkyDrive, Dropbox, Google Drive, CloudMe and now SugarSync, so you can organize all your cloud files at once. Use WinZip to zip and save large files to the cloud or retrieve files or links to share. Secure your files and save precious online storage space by zipping and encrypting them first.

Share content the right way by converting to PDF. WinZip makes it easy to convert Microsoft Office files to PDF as you zip, making them ready to share with anyone. For extra protection, create a read-only PDF.
