MacFort

MacFort is a handy app for your Mac that helps keep your sensitive information safe. Even with all the security measures we can use, it's tough to make sure no one else can peek at our private files, especially if your computer is shared with others.

Why Use MacFort?

If you don't want to lock down your entire machine, MacFort offers a great way to protect your personal files and folders. It creates password-protected vaults where you can store your important data securely.

Scanning for Sensitive Files

Not sure what needs protection? No worries! You can have MacFort scan your computer for sensitive files that might need some extra security. It checks places like iTunes, iPhoto libraries, browser histories, mailbox contents, and even iChat conversations.

Create Your Vault

The first time you launch MacFort, it will ask you to create a vault. This is where you'll keep all your secured data. You can set a custom password and choose where on your Mac to save this vault.

Encryption Options

You have options when it comes to saving the vault too! You can save it as either a sparse disk image or a DMG file. Plus, you get to pick between 256-bit or 128-bit encryption algorithms for extra security.

Easy Access from the Status Bar

Once you've created one or more vaults, accessing them is super easy! Instead of opening the app each time to unlock them, MacFort adds an icon right in your status bar. This lets you encrypt, decrypt, and access your locked vaults without any hassle!

A Simple Solution for Security

Overall, MacFort provides a simple yet effective way to protect important files by putting them in encrypted vaults anywhere on your Mac. If you're looking for an easy way to keep nosy eyes off your data, this is definitely worth checking out!
