File protection with encryption
ClearShield lets you select which files and folders are important for you to protect. Once selected, ClearShield's powerful encryption technology does its job - keeping unwanted eyes from peering into your personal information contained in these now-protected files and folders.
What does ClearShield's encryption protect?
ClearShield’s powerful encryption technology will protect any Windows folder and files you specify as being confidential or sensitive in nature. ClearShield can protect the files on your computer’s hard drive, USB keys, and even other external drives. You decide what to protect and let ClearShield do the rest.
With ClearShield protecting your system, you can be assured that no thief, hacker, keylogger, or even malware can gain access to the confidential information contained in your personal encrypted files.
In addition to encryption, there are several things you can do to protect your machine
- Turn on automatic updates for your operating system;
- Make sure your antivirus program has automatic updates enabled, and be sure to scan regularly;
- Configure your firewall to block activity trying to open new ports;
- Do not run your system as a local administrator. By running your system as a limited user, which is now the default mode with Vista, malware will not gain the privilege necessary to write to your system files;
- Install a content filtering system that blocks access to known phishing sites and sites that contain malware;
- Schedule regular backups for all critical data, including documents, emails, and spreadsheets, in case you need to reinstall your operating system;
- Protect your files from being viewed by using an easy-to-configure file encryption solution;
- Download and install a behavior-based detection program, such as ClearShield, which looks for suspicious behavior, not just specific programs.
