Article title: Policy for password protected files
AKS-Labs wrote: Protected files policy helps enhance an organization’s information security and reduce the risks of password interception.
The files containing important information must be secure enough and protected by a strong password. However, password-protected files are often targeted by attackers. Once the password protected file is disclosed, the risk to of the password interception is considerably increased.
To secure protected files stored on your computer, you need to implement a unified policy for password protected files
Keep sensitive password protected files secure:
-- File names should not point out the importance of file
-- Don't create copies of the protected file
-- Place file in secure location on hard disk
Aside from protecting information by a strong and secure password, the password protected files must as well be made inaccessible by unauthorized people. Implementing a consistent policy for password protected files helps enhance an organization’s security policy as a whole and, finally, prevent information leakage.
