Security is an issue in every company, and if your laptop becomes lost or stolen, the information stored in your Notes databases is no longer secure. To help ensure that information on your laptop is available to only you, encrypt the local copies of databases on your laptop.

To encrypt a local database, follow these steps:

1.

Right-click the database bookmark, and choose Database, Properties.

2.

On the Database Basics tab, click the Encryption Settings button.

3.

From the Locally Encrypt This Database Using drop-down list (see Figure 17.4), select Medium Encryption. Select Strong Encryption only if your system administrator instructs you to do so.

Figure 17.4. Choose to locally encrypt databases in the Encryption dialog box.

4.

Click OK.
