Abstract
A method, system and article for encrypting data by applying an encryption process, wherein the encryption process includes storing progress data relating to the progress of the encryption process so that the encryption process may be resumed after an interruption. Even more specifically, after the interruption, progress data relating to the progress of the encryption process is accessed. Portions of the progress data are compared to determine the last encrypted data segment. After the last encrypted data segment, the encryption process at the data segment is resumed.
