+  summary: EGACryptor v.2.0.0
+  license: Apache-2.0
+  description: The EGACryptor v.2.0.0 is a JAVA-based application which enables submitters
+    to produce EGA compliant encrypted files along with files for the encrypted
+    and unencrypted md5sum for each file to be submitted. The application will
+    generate an output folder that will by default mirror the directory structure
+    containing the original files. This output folder can subsequently be uploaded
+    to the EGA FTP staging area via an FTP or Aspera client.
