File Lock PEA is a security and privacy application designed to help users protect confidential and sensitive files on their computer. It allows users to easily set up a password-protected “lock” on specific folders, files, or documents, so that only those with the correct password can access the locked content. File Lock PEA also includes additional features such as automatic file encryption, the ability to hide files or folders, and the ability to shred or delete confidential information permanently. File Lock PEA also offers a built-in secure browser for safely browsing the internet and a secure shredder for permanently deleting all traces of sensitive documents. It also includes a secure file backup feature that automatically backs up all files and folders to an external drive, or to a secure online storage account.
