How to get file or volume encryption with mesh? RRS feed

  • Question

  • computer A
    computer B
    mesh desktop

    computer A is mine, but my sister somtimes uses it.
    computer B is in office, my mate and I share it.
    mesh desktop is used for work.
    I have files need them encrypted.

    1 some kind of files should be encrypted in binary data and be useable only to myself, in compter A, my sister can't, in mesh and computer B, my mate can't
    (such as my id number)

    2 some should be encrypted in volume. in computer A, my sister can't. when the files are sync to mesh or computer B, they are totally public and can be access without any additional requirement.
    (such as my work report)

    3 the encryption should be in background (account based), because some files are program data and may be called by exec program. you can not input password everytime.

    NTFS based EFS encryption looks well(even a little matter,see http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/LiveMesh/thread/09b30447-f47e-41ff-879a-f9fb7ee52c6b/ ), but I need a way with all conditions.


    Is there a way?

  • Hi,

    I'm not sure if you're looking for a way (outside of Live Mesh) to set up the encryption scenarios you'd like, or if you're suggesting that Live Mesh enable these various types of access protection.  If the latter, I encourage you to submit a suggestion through Connect, and post it to the Suggestions sticky.  Please let me know if you have any questions.

    Thanks,

    Ben.
