However, I made a mistake.
I’d like to know what happens in this case.
I’ve backed up a few documents with Winrar to make a self-unpacking file in *.exe format.
I imagine that this file has been sent to Comodo.
So I have the following questions:
-
How long does it take for transmitted files to be automatically and reliably destroyed once they arrive at Comodo?
-
Are the staff who are authorized to analyze the files “by hand” subject to confidentiality clauses that prevent them from disclosing or passing on personal information, including to their colleagues or superiors? (apart from what is against the law, of course).
-
If I had encoded (encrypted) the *.exe files created by Winrar, would Comodo be able to decrypt the files? I imagine it would, otherwise investigations would be less relevant or numerous.
To sum up: I will never again compress personal documents in *.exe format.
(The fault is mine alone)
