Acer eDataSecurity Management
Acer eDataSecurity Management is a handy file encryption utility that protects the files from being
accessed by unauthorized persons. It is conveniently integrated with Windows Explorer as a shell
extension for quick and easy data encryption and 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 and decrypt a file: the supervisor password
and the file-specific password. The supervisor password is a “master” password that can decrypt
any file on the system. The file-specific password is assigned when you encrypt each individual file.
Acer eDataSecurity Management setup wizard will prompt 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 to 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 the encrypted files! Be sure to safeguard all
related password.
