DATA ENCRYPTIONData Encryption is designed for protecting confidential information against unauthorized access. At that, encryptedinformation is stored in a special container.Container is an encrypted object created by the user with the Data Encryption function. Files and folders are moved intothe container. To access the data stored in the container, you should enter a password. Additionally, <strong>Kaspersky</strong> <strong>PURE</strong>must be installed on the computer.To work with the data in the container, you must decrypt them. In this case, <strong>Kaspersky</strong> <strong>PURE</strong> requests a password foraccess. After you have entered the password, the container is displayed in the system as a virtual removable drive ontowhich you can copy or move files and folders with data.IN THIS SECTION:Creating and connecting an existing container .............................................................................................................. 174Locking and unlocking access to the data in the container ........................................................................................... 175Adding files into container ............................................................................................................................................. 176Configuring container .................................................................................................................................................... 176Creating shortcut for quick access to the container ....................................................................................................... 176CREATING AND CONNECTING AN EXISTING CONTAINERTo store encrypted data, you need to create a container. You can create a container on a local or removable drive.A container can be created using the wizard. When creating a container, you need to specify its name, size, accesspassword, and container file location.This wizard consists of a series of screens (or steps) navigated using the Back and the Next buttons. To close thewizard once it has completed its work, use the Finish button. To stop the wizard at any stage, use the Cancel button.You can also switch between the wizard's steps that you have completed, by using the browsing buttons in the top partof the window.You can also connect an existing container if it is unavailable on the computer you are currently using (for example, afterthe operating system is reinstalled, or if the container is copied from another computer). In this case, the containerappears in the list but data access is locked. To work with the data stored in the container, you must decrypt them (seesection "Locking and unlocking access to the data in the container" on page 175).To create a container, please do the following:1. Open the main application window and click the Data Encryption button.2. In the window that opens, click the Create container button.3. The Encrypted Container Creation Wizard will be started. Let us take a closer look at the wizard's steps:a. Enter the name of the container, as well as its size and access password in the Main settings window.b. Specify the location of the container file in the Location window.c. Select a letter of virtual drive to connect this container, specify the advanced settings, if necessary, andconfirm creation of the container with the specified settings in the Summary window.174
