Acer eDataSecurity Management
Acer eDataSecurity Management is a handy file encryption utility that protects
your files from being accessed by unauthorized persons. It is conveniently
integrated with Windows Explorer as a shell extension for quick and easy data
encryption/decryption and also supports on-the-fly file encryption for MSN
Messenger and Microsoft Outlook.
There are two passwords that can be used to encrypt/decrypt a file: the
supervisor password and the file-specific password. The supervisor password is a
"master" password that can decrypt any file on your system; the file-specific
password is assigned when you encrypt each individual file.
The Acer eDataSecurity Management setup wizard will prompt you for a
supervisor password and default file-specific password. This file-specific
password will be used to encrypt files by default, or you can choose to enter
your own file-specific password when encrypting a file.
Note: The password used encrypt a file is the unique key that the
system needs to decrypt it. If you lose the password, the supervisor
password is the only other key capable of decrypting the file. If
you lose both passwords, there will be no way to decrypt your
encrypted file! Be sure to safeguard all related passwords!
