CNET Editors' review
It's simple enough for the novice to use, but there's nothing simplistic about this system utility's hard-disk password protection.
The program's clean, easy-to-use interface holds basic command buttons across the top of the window and displays your PC's disk partitions. A wizard and extensive Help file ensure that you're on the right path to protection. The first easy step is selecting the kind of protection--boot or partition--and choosing the disk to protect. In addition to a 30-day trial period, the program has a restriction that prevents you from creating your own password. But no matter, we applied the default password, and the program worked perfectly, password-protecting our designated disks. At system start-up, we were asked to enter our password before our system would continue with the bootup process.
Despite the password restriction, we got a good taste of this program's capabilities. Novice and experienced users alike will feel safer using Disk Password Protection.
Publisher's Description
From Exlade:
Disk Password Protection is complex protection for your computer, disks, partitions and confidential information against unauthorized access. Protect your disks and partitions with a password, hide and protect your information from other people, restrict viewing and launching files. Protect starting operating systems on your computer with a password.
It is low-level protection. It works directly with the disk and does not depend on any operating systems, programs or other equipment. Passwords are encrypted and stored in the protected areas of the disk. Owing to this, the protection will work on any computers and can be controlled from any computer.
