Secure Your Electronic Files

Your data is the life blood of your company, and keeping it secure should be a priority to you. With the mobile world that we live in, our data moves with us a lot of the time, security can be a real issue. If you must take your work out in the field with you, try to limit the amount that you take and the breadth of the data. The data you do need to take with you should be secure as possible. Microsoft has a new application that will help with that.

Microsoft Private Folder 1.0 is a useful tool for you to protect your private data when your friends, colleagues, kids or other people share your PC or account. With this tool, you will get one password protected folder called ‘My Private Folder’ in your account to save your personal files.

There are hardware and software specs required to run Microsoft Private Folder 1.0, but they are low enough where almost everyone will be able to take advantage of this product:

• Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition, Professional Edition and Media Center Edition with SP2
• Super VGA (800 x 600) or higher-resolution video adapter and monitor

Please note: Microsoft Private Folder 1.0 is provided specifically for genuine Windows customers, and requires genuine Windows validation in order to download. The software is free, and does not come with product support. Simply put, if you didn’t pay for your copy of windows, you can’t get the download.

First and foremost, keep you data safe.
