Step 4 Choose Security Level and Display Mode to Protect Folder

Next, you need to select a Security Level from the three options:
Normal: Protect folders with the fastest speed and good security strength, a suitable for folders with large size;

High: Encrypt folders in a medium size and speed with higher security strength;

Highest: Protect folders in small volume and relatively slower speed with the strongest security strength.

Next, you can choose to hide or display the protected folder on your local drive disk. “Hidden” means the folder is hidden from the user who opens your drive, and you can access to your data in the main window of the software; “Local” refers to displaying your password protected folder on the original directory with a special protected mark on it, and you can access it freely with your password.

Then click on “Encrypt” button to finish password protecting folders on your PC!

It is quite a usual practice to store confidential data on personal computers. And when it comes to data protection, Mac OS X offers an in-house option called FileVault that fully encrypts the startup disk to prevent unauthorized access to your data. FileVault decrypts the disk every time you log in to the system.

 

Hide and password-protect files & folders on Mac

But as it turns out in most cases, your Mac is often accessed by friends, family or sometimes even your colleagues. In such cases, you usually end up unlocking your Mac for them to use. And the confidential data may be accidentally exposed or sometimes, even be deleted.

One of the other options for securing data on OS X is to create a password protected virtual disk image, and putting your confidential data within the virtual disk. But this method has a few disadvantages:

  • Once the password protected disk image is created, you have to manually move your confidential files into it.
  • Even after moving your files into the encrypted disk image, they are still recoverable from their original location with suitable file recovery software.
  • The encrypted disk image has a definite size limit. If the data you keep within it exceeds that limit, you have to manually extend the size of your disk image using Disk Utility.

Hider – Lock and Hide data on OS X

Hider is a useful Mac app that can protect your confidential data within an encrypted vault. It works similar to the native virtual disk solution, but automatically takes care of the above mentioned challenges. During the initial setup process, Hider asks you for the master password. It then creates an encrypted vault on your Mac, which can only be unlocked using the master password.
