    Create the encrypted file locally.
    The encrypted file will appear in the same folder as the original file.
    Archive and Burn

    Option
    Description
    Notes
    Local Key
    Create an encrypted file that can only be accessed by the user who created it.
    This option is only available if you select Archive.
    No window will display after selecting this option. The encrypted file will be created immediately.
    Depending on the Windows operating system, a user may view folder contents if switching from one user to a separate user without restarting Windows. While file names and folder content may be viewed, the file contents are not available. This is due to Windows operating system caching the file structure for quick search capability.
    Shared Key
    Create an encrypted file that can only be accessed by any member of the current user's policy group.
    This option is only available if you select Archive.
    No window will display after selecting this option. The encrypted file will be created immediately.
    Depending on the Windows operating system, a user may view folder contents if switching from one user to a separate user without restarting Windows. While file names and folder content may be viewed, the file contents are not available. This is due to Windows operating system caching the file structure for quick search capability.
    Fixed Password
    Create an encrypted file that requires a password to access.
    There is no functionality available for password recovery with self-extracting files. If a password is forgotten, the encrypted file cannot be recovered.
    Due to a Windows limitation, executable (self-extracting) files cannot be larger than 2 GB.
    Certificate
    Create an encrypted file that requires specific digital certificates to access.
    The digital certificates may be stored on smart cards depending on your environment and policy settings.
