This typically means that the files stored on your computer, your phone, tablet, or other devices can only be accessed by you and anyone else who has the encryption key.<\/p>\n<p>Though it sounds complicated, it is transparent to the user in practice. You will continue to use your device as usual but with added security \u2013files saved on your hard drive or other memory cannot be easily accessed by other users.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s use some examples to explain this better.<\/p>\n<p>Example 1:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Your computer has encryption at rest enabled.<\/li>\n<li>All your files are saved on your hard drive.<\/li>\n<li>Your computer is stolen\/lost.<\/li>\n<li>If anyone tries to read the files from the hard drive by connecting it to another computer. However, the files cannot be decrypted, meaning all your files are protected against unauthorized access.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Example 2:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>You save your files on your mobile device.<\/li>\n<li>Encryption is enabled on your device storage.<\/li>\n<li>Your device is lost\/stolen.<\/li>\n<li>No one can read your files from your device, regardless of their method to extract the files since they don\u2019t have the encryption key.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Important note: encryption at rest will only make sense as a security measure if your computer\/device has login protection with a strong password or a secure access method that no one else possesses.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Enable_Encryption_at_Rest\"><\/span>How to Enable Encryption at Rest<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Depending on your device and operating system, the instructions may vary. \u00a0This article will focus on Windows\/macOS and Android\/iOS.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Enable_Encryption_on_Windows_1011\"><\/span>Enable Encryption on Windows 10\/11<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>To encrypt your data at rest in Windows, you must enable BitLocker Drive Encryption.

(If your computer doesn\u2019t have a TPM, this can still be possible by saving the key to a removable device, such as a USB Flash Drive.)<\/li>\n<li>The hard disk must have at least two partitions.<\/li>\n<li>The operating system drive must be formatted with the NTFS file system.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You can review the <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.microsoft.com\/en-us\/windows\/security\/information-protection\/bitlocker\/bitlocker-overview#system-requirements\">BitLocker System Requirements<\/a> page in Microsoft documentation for more details.<\/p>\n<p>If your Windows computer supports BitLocker, you can launch the configuration window by opening it from your Windows menu.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-33535\" src=\"https:\/\/www.filecloud.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Security-Recommendations-Pt2-Manage-BitLocker.png\" alt=\"BitLocker in Windows Control Panel\" width=\"1551\" height=\"1263\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.filecloud.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Security-Recommendations-Pt2-Manage-BitLocker.png 1551w, https:\/\/www.filecloud.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Security-Recommendations-Pt2-Manage-BitLocker-300x244.png 300w, https:\/\/www.filecloud.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Security-Recommendations-Pt2-Manage-BitLocker-1024x834.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.filecloud.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Security-Recommendations-Pt2-Manage-BitLocker-768x625.png 768w, https:\/\/www.filecloud.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Security-Recommendations-Pt2-Manage-BitLocker-1536x1251.png 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1551px) 100vw, 1551px\"><\/p>\n<p>This will open the BitLocker Control Panel; from here, you will be able to enable\/disable and save your recovery key.
