About Process Specific file extension encryption

Mix of keys and extensions

It is possible to add as many processes and extensions as you like. It is also possible

to mix encryption keys for different extensions in one and the same process, as long

as it is done in a rational manner.

Save vs. Save As… when editing existing files

Consider an existing file with an extension that is listed to be encrypted by a file

extension encryption policy. Opening this file, and editing it and then saving it, does

not necessarily mean it will be encrypted, even if the policy states files with that

extension to be encrypted.

For some applications, it is required to do a Save As… operation (i.e. create a new

file) for the encryption to happen on that particular file. Whereas for other

applications, the regular Save operation is enough on the existing file for the

encryption to happen. Typically, Microsoft® Office™ applications belong to the latter,

i.e. such files will be encrypted by just opening them and do a Save operation.

Notepad is an example of the former, where it is necessary to do “Save As…” in order

for the file extension encryption policy to apply on that existing file.
