ZST Is Fast. But What About Encryption?

Zstandard, or ZST, is a modern compression format: fast, efficient, and usually smaller than ZIP. That makes it great for backups, project folders, exports, logs, datasets, and other files that are compressed and unpacked often. It was built for compression, not for password-protected archives. With ZIP or RAR, encrypted archives are familiar. You choose files, set a password, and create an archive that is compressed and protected. https://medium.com/@chris.ahrweiler/zst-is-fast-but-what-about-encryption-f1ba36ad993b
