Description
A 7Z file is a type of compressed archive that uses the open-source LZMA compression algorithm to reduce the size of the file. This type of file is often used to store multiple directories and files in a single, compressed package. 7Z files can also include strong AES-256 encryption for added security. They are commonly created using the 7-Zip utility developed by Igor Pavlov.
The cpio file type is associated with Unix-based systems and represents a format used for archiving and compressing files. The name "cpio" stands for "copy in, copy out," reflecting the method by which files are gathered into an archive or extracted from one. This format supports various compression methods and is commonly utilized for creating archives in backup processes, distributing packages, or consolidating files for easier transfer. A cpio archive can contain multiple files and directories, preserving their file attributes.
