Do you have files or folders that you do not want to share with others? I know you will say as long as we do not share our computer login password, we are safe. But how if you are sharing computer with your colleagues in office? Even you do not share, your administrator is able to unlock your login user account with their super user rights. (This is one of the administrator job)
So how you protect your private and confidential files and folders? Don’t get me wrong, I am not teaching you how to break rules or regulations. Just provide a better method to keep your own data such as resume, bank information and etc in safer place.
How to Protect Files and Folders?
The simplest way is use Folder Protector 5.0 by Kakasoft. KaKa Folder Protector is a powerful and easy to use software to protect your private data. It can hide and protect any folder including flash disk and removable hard disk by using its strong folder encryption method.
To start protect your folder, download and install Folder Protector 5.0 (~420KB). Once complete, click on Protect Others, select your personal folder and put in your strong password. That’s it. Your folder will become invisible. Nobody can copy, view, delete or check your real folder size. Click here for more step by step tutorial.

Now, even others got your data, they are not able to read or edit without your password to decrypt. Have you protect your files and folders?
