We would like this to be a seamless process in which no one has to mess around with encrypting or mounting/unmounting, just a simply password entry to gain access each time you want to open the file or folder.Welcome to r/Apple, the unofficial community for Apple news, rumors, and discussions. Basically, we want to take the burden off of the operating system and the operator, and make all files secure in and of themselves.Īll files must be accessible at all times by all team members We all understand that it's important to keep laptops secured with passwords, but in the event that someone accidentally leaves their computer on and signed in and walks away from it, we would like to protect all of the files in dropbox so that they are password protected. There is the head of the project who "hosts" all of the files on dropbox and then there is his research team who all have dropbox installed on their personal laptops with access to these files. I'm working on a research project that involves highly sensitive information. The only thing that I have been able to come up with so far is to teach everyone how to use WinRar and to unzip and rezip (password protected) with every use of every files (sounds tedious, right?) In that scenario, using TrueCrypt, one secures the files but then they are not usable while they are secured and hiding the files doesn't make them accessible to the rest of the team. I'm aware that there is a similar thread on this subject, but I don't think that situation is similar to mine because the solution that was reached will not work for me.
