What's new

v3.6 [Jul 19, 2014]
- Security: Plausible deniability (PD) is compromised for folders that had auto-lock enabled (their path was leaked). If you require PD for these folders make sure to change the mountpoint for the affected folders after updating to 3.6.2
- Improvements: If a folder fails to lock, Espionage will now tell you the application(s) that's preventing it from locking.
- Bug fixes: Fixed crash on renaming a folder. Fixed issue where many critical notifications would be posted if a folder failed to auto-lock due to open item.
- Misc.: Added Cynthia to credits for Tagalog localization.
- Known Issue(s): High CPU usage can occur if a folder gets auto-locked in a user-account that you're not logged into (via Apple's Fast User Switching feature).

v3.5 [Jun 3, 2013]
- SECURITY: Bug introduced in 3.5.2 that resulted in all folder paths of an unlocked Folder Set being logged to the system log. After several days (or weeks) these messages will disappear from the log files, but you can force their removal using a tool like OnyX. For OnyX, use these settings.
- IMPROVED: Added retina support for lock/unlock slider. Retina support for other graphics coming too.
- FIXED: Removed several instances of unnecessary folder path logging (on folder lock/unlock) to help with plausible deniability. This is a losing battle because folder names and paths are logged to the system log by other background processes that Espionage does not have control over. Logging folder paths is also necessary if an error occurs.
- FIXED: (Mavericks) Wrong folder icon.
- FIXED: (Mavericks) Error decrypting a folder.
- FIXED: (Mavericks) Problem unlocking folders for anyone who enabled the hidden setting "enableDiskArbitrationMethod".

v3.0 [May 29, 2012]
- IMPROVED: Signed with Developer ID for Mountain Lion compatibility
- FIXED: Crash in autounlock
- FIXED: Spanish translation in english language
