% needed to zip attachments for the forum
unzip things.zip
% read the file
fname = 'things/heaterductmount.stl';
[V,F,N,~] = stlReadAscii(fname);
% plot it
patch('faces',F,'vertices',V, ...
'facecolor',[1 1 1], ...
'edgecolor','none');
% set up lighting, etc
shapelighting(gca)
Star Strider's suggestion works too. T is a triangulation object, so you'll handle it differently.
% read the file
fname = 'things/heaterductmount.stl';
T = stlread(fname);
% plot it
trisurf(T, ...
'facecolor',[1 1 1], ...
'edgecolor','none');
% set up lighting, etc
shapelighting(gca)

I am not intimately familiar with all the various file formats, the degree to which the features of each one are supported within MATLAB, and I have no idea what your requirements are. From what I can tell, it's not clear why the format should have any bearing on whether the file can be encrypted. It's also not clear to me what sort of color information is expected, or whether it's necessary.
