Simplifying Protection of Confidential Data
While I’ve written often about the importance of encrypting data, it’s always fun to revisit this topic:

MAKE IT SIMPLE
If we rely on a simple lock/unlock scenario to protect confidential data, here’s what it might look like:
Lock/Unlock Your Files
- Start up the SSE File Encryption file on your Desktop
- Type in your secret password.
- Drop the files you want to encrypt or decrypt your files into the SSE box.
These approaches will only work on a desktop or laptop computer, not an iPad or iPhone. Android devices can get the SSE File Encryptor mobile app version.
The video tutorials are intended for use in a school district as a way of securing confidential information.
