Security is just as important as backup. Windows provides Personal Vault in OneDrive and BitLocker encryption to keep sensitive data safe.

  • Personal Vault: Stores important files in a protected area requiring a second step to access (PIN, fingerprint, or code).
  • BitLocker: Encrypts entire drives on Windows Pro or Enterprise, so even if a device is stolen, files remain inaccessible without a password.

Together, these features ensure that your cloud files and local drives are protected against accidental access or theft. For anyone handling sensitive work or personal documents, these tools are essential.
