Encrypting Folders


Before you can encrypt data, you must do two things.  First, you must create some System Control Files and select some folders from the directory tree (see Overview for selecting folders).

Once these have been done, all you have to do is simply highlight the folders you want to encrypt, select the three key components you want to use then click on the encrypt button.  You may use the Select All button to highlight all the folders in the selected folders area.  If any of the selected folders are already encrypted no error will be produced and the encrypted file will be bypassed.

After you have encrypted a folder, the folder will have an (encrypted) status tagged on the selected folders entry.  This way you have an easy way to determine which folders are encrypted or decrypted.

Please take note that once a folder has been encrypted, only the original encrypted file in junction with the System Control Files used and the exact combination of Key Components used are required to retrieve your data.
