Snoop-proof Data Protection for Home, Office and Travel
July 21, 2008 - MagneticSoft today announces the
release of Folder Castle 3.0, a Windows security tool for
protecting computer files from snoops and thieves at home, office and on
the road. In version 3.0, users will discover a new interface of the control
center that enables fluid navigation through the program, letting users
access any destination in a mouse click.
Of all the threats to your computer privacy, people who have a physical
access to your system are the most dangerous. An up-to-date antivirus
can prevent from viruses, a firewall can stop hackers but what can stop
someone who knows your account login from accessing your computer and
seeing a folder with the files you don't want others to see? To protect
yourself from snoops, you need proactive data protection.
Folder Castle gives you the confidence to keep your
personal files hidden and password-protected on the computer without fear
that a family member or a co-worker can view or use them when you're not
around.
Folder Castle employs two methods of data protection.
First, you can hide a folder so that the snoop doesn't even suspect there
is something hidden away from him. Second, you can put a folder into a
secure storage, which acts as a mountable virtual drive where you can
drag and drop files and have them encrypted with instant 256-bit AES
encryption. A valid password is required to access files in the secure
storage or unhide files. The password cannot be cleared even when the
intruder attempts to disconnect the battery that powers the BIOS memory
chip. Once protected, computer files cannot be seen in Windows even if
it's rebooted in Safe Mode. Folder Castle itself can be hidden away without
traces if you enable the Stealth mode.
Folder Castle lets you share protected files with other
people. Just create a secure storage on a USB flash drive, ZIP drive or
any other removable device, put files into it and give the USB to someone
you want to share your files with. To access files, the recipient must
have a password and a copy of Folder Castle installed on
the local machine.
WHO CAN BENEFIT FROM FOLDER CASTLE?
Folder Castle can benefit most any computer user who has secrets to hide.
Home PC user. Most any home user has a folder that he
doesn't want others to see. This folder may contain bank account logins,
financial data, emails and anything else to keep other out. Now you can
use Folder Castle to lock your family members out of your
private folders so that they don't even know you have something hidden on
your computer. For more peace of mind, you can also hide the traces of
Folder Castle!
Office PC user. Files you have on your office computer
can also be the target of morbid interest from your ill-intentioned
co-workers. In order to ensure no prying eyes are pocking around when your
leave the workplace for a few minutes, you must password protect and
encrypt documents. Folder Castle is ideal for the task.
Even if someone knows your Windows account password, he won't see your
documents.
Laptop user. If you job involves plenty of business
trips, you probably have a laptop. For many laptop owners, the biggest
worry is how to keep the precious data inside - business emails, projects,
contracts, customer databases or banking data - out of hands of thieves.

the road. Hide and encrypt files and travel with the laptop that won't
ruin your business if it's stolen.
