Encrypting your data file
If you need to keep others from accessing your TimeCache data, you
can encrypt and password protect it with the encryption option
built into TimeCache.
You protect your file by choosing . TimeCache prompts
you for a password, and requires you to enter it twice. Be sure you
remember the password you enter. TimeCache uses 256-bit AES, a very
strong encryption scheme. Your data is not recoverable without the
password.
You can change your password by choosing . TimeCache asks
for your old password, then asks you to enter a new password
twice.
If you decide to remove encryption, choose . TimeCache
asks for your password twice to confirm that you have permission to
remove encryption.
IMPORTANT: If you lose your password for an
encrypted TimeCache data file, the data in the file cannot be
recovered unless you know how to crack 256-bit AES encryption. (To
the best of our knowledge, so far nobody has done that.) At the
same time, The PandaWare Company cannot assure complete security
for your data even if you do encrypt it. Use TimeCache file
encryption sensibly.
