Do you want to password protect your sensitive Mac folder from unwanted access and prevent data loss? Lean how you can encrypt a folder on Mac using Disk Utility.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Using Disk Utility, when you format an internal or external volume, you can encrypt and protect the volume with a password. <\/span><\/p>\n

If you encrypt an internal disk, you must enter a password to access the disk and its information.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you encrypt an external device, you must enter the password when you connect the device to your computer.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can create an encrypted disk image from your specified folder directly. Here are five simple and easy steps to encrypt your folder on Mac<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

How to encrypt folder in macOS<\/span><\/h4>\n
    \n
  1. Open up\u00a0Disk Utility<\/strong>.<\/span>
    \n
    \"Encrypt<\/span><\/figure>\n<\/li>\n
  2. Then, click on\u00a0File<\/strong>\u00a0>\u00a0New<\/strong>\u00a0>\u00a0Disk Image From Folder<\/strong>.<\/span>
    \n
    \"Encrypt<\/span><\/figure>\n<\/li>\n
  3. Select the folder you want to encrypt, and click\u00a0Image<\/strong>.<\/span>
    \n
    \"Encrypt<\/span><\/figure>\n<\/li>\n
  4. Choose \u2018read\/write\u2019 if you want your folder to be edit-able (if not, just choose another format), and choose \u2018128-bit AES encryption\u2019.<\/span>
    \n
    \"Encrypt<\/span><\/figure>\n<\/li>\n
  5. Type in any password you desire, and very importantly, make sure the checkbox for \u2018Remember password in my keychain\u2019 is\u00a0NOT<\/strong>\u00a0ticked, else it will defeat the whole purpose of encrypting your folder.<\/span>
    \n
    \"Encrypt<\/span><\/figure>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    You’re Done. A password-protected .dmg file<\/span><\/span> will be created based on the folder you selected. Larger folders may take longer to encrypt. Once that is done, you can delete the original folder.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"Encrypt<\/span><\/figure>\n

    How to access encrypted disk image in macOS<\/span><\/h4>\n

    To access the encrypted disk image, just double-click the .dmg file to mount it in the Finder and punch in the password whenever you try to access the folder.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Always uncheck the box saying “Remember password in my keychain” to make sure it is always protected by passwords.<\/span><\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    \"Access<\/span><\/figure>\n

     <\/p>\n

    After a disk image is mounted, you\u2019re able to access the folder like normal. Now, putting any\u00a0files<\/span><\/span>\u00a0in the folder will put the file under encrypted protection too.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"Access<\/span><\/figure>\n

     <\/p>\n

    After you\u2019re done working with the folder and want it to be password protected again, just unmount the folder from Finder.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"Encrypt<\/span><\/figure>\n

     <\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    \n

    Important<\/span>: <\/strong>If you encrypt an external drive, you can\u2019t connect it to an AirPort base station for Time Machine backups.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    To encrypt and protect the volume with a password using Disk Utility, you must erase the volume first. If the volume contains files you want to save, be sure to copy them to another volume.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
