When you’ve got files that you need to take with you, sometimes it won’t matter who comes across them. If you’re taking music files with you or you’re going to take a few sketches or ideas over to a friends’ place to show off, data encryption isn’t that important.

On the other hand, if you’re taking bank statements with you to work something out with your financial planner, it could be a real problem if you lost track of the USB drive with the files. If you’re transporting work documents that have sensitive information, you don’t want to be responsible for losing the drive and letting the information get out, do you?

The bright side is that data encryption isn’t just for military covert ops files. It’s not just for spies. Anyone can use it to create a portable vault for their files - whether it’s to keep financial statements private or just to hide the plans for a surprise party from a friend who’s great at figuring out what no one whats her to know.

Simply run the software, setup a password, drag the files from your Windows Explorer into your portable vault, organize them the way that you want to, choose which files to protect, then seal up the vault.

With your password, you’ll be able to get back to your files without a problem and - thanks to data encryption - without that password no one else will be able to open them up and see what’s inside.

We all have files that we don’t really want others to be able to have a look at. Granted, we may not have anything so scandalous as a celebrity sex video kicking around on our hard drives, but most of us do have:

• emails that we wouldn’t feel great about just anyone finding;
• work files that have information that our bosses wouldn’t really want us to share
• diary files where that we’d like to keep locked away
• spreadsheets with financial records or backups of credit card statements
• copies of tax returns

When it comes right down to it, saving a copy of these files is a good idea. Using data encryption to save the information securely is an even better idea.

When you use software like MigoSync to save a copy of your files in a backup location - on a portable hard drive, a USB drive or even a CD or DVD - you’ll know that you always will have a copy available and you’ll know that that copy is encrypted and password protected: your copy will be for your eyes only, unless you make the decision to share the password with someone who you trust.

How often do you copy a file onto a USB flash drive? What kind of information do you put on your portable drives? Do you protect that information and your portable drive with data encryption?

If you’re like most people, it’s second nature to put a copy of a file onto a flash drive. You’ll just backup a document or a spreadsheet at the office, take it home to make changes on your home PC, and then upload the change in the morning. It doesn’t seem like that big of a deal.

In fact, for many, using a flash drive is practically second nature. Some business owners do more than just backing up documents to a flash drive, they back up their bookkeeping records and invoices because the storage is convenient and easy to access.

However, without data encryption or other efforts to keep your portable drives safe, this might not be the best idea. Flash drives are often misplaced or left behind. Others may pick them up to backup a quick file and suddenly have access to information that they shouldn’t see.

But this can be prevented easily: with data encryption provided by Migo Software’s Digital Vault, you can rest assured that those who aren’t authorized can’t see the files. You’ll also know that information on your portable drive is safe from hackers, viruses and even spyware.

When you connect to your email on the web, date encryption security helps to keep those who shouldn’t know your password or your mailbox contents from getting through. Data encryption keeps those without access from opening files at a business.

Can data encryption keep your documents safe? If it can keep other information secure, why wouldn’t it be able to?

With a data encryption program like Migo Software’s Digital Vault, you’ll be able to:

• password protect important files,
• encrypt files as well as email attachments,
• encrypt your files on external hard drives and portable flash drives, and
• make secure backups of all of your files.

Each of these tools will enable you to keep your files for your eyes - and the eyes of those who you choose to share the files with - only.

In other words, yes, data encryption can keep your documents safe - as well as your spreadsheets, file backups, presentations and more.
