The CD/DVD encryption section is for encryption a CD or DVD image in the ISO format. You have to select a source ISO image file, select a destination folder and click on the Encrypt button. It will encrypt the contents of the selected ISO image and then repackage them into a new encrypted ISO file. You can mount this ISO file using a tool like TotalMounter or burn it on a physical blank CD or DVD using a tool like ImgBurn.
