Možda ste čuli za BitLocker šifriranje pogona dostupno u sustavu Windows 10^{(Windows 10)} , ali to nije jedina metoda šifriranja jer Windows Pro & Enterprise Edition također nudi Encrypting File System ili EFS . Glavna razlika između BitLocker i EFS enkripcije je u tome što BitLocker šifrira cijeli pogon, dok EFS omogućuje šifriranje pojedinačnih datoteka i mapa.

BitLocker je vrlo koristan ako želite šifrirati cijeli disk kako biste zaštitili svoje osjetljive ili osobne podatke, a enkripcija nije vezana ni za jedan korisnički račun, ukratko, nakon što je BitLocker omogućen na pogonu od strane administratora, svaki pojedinačni korisnički račun na tom će računalu taj pogon imati šifriran. Jedini nedostatak BitLockera^(BitLocker) je taj što ovisi o modulu pouzdane platforme ili TPM hardveru koji mora doći s vašim računalom da biste koristili BitLocker enkripciju.

Sustav^{(File System)} šifriranja datoteka ( EFS ) koristan je za one koji štite samo svoju pojedinačnu datoteku ili mape, a ne cijeli disk. EFS je vezan za određeni korisnički račun, tj. šifriranim datotekama može pristupiti samo određeni korisnički račun koji je šifrirao te datoteke i mape. Ali ako se koristi drugi korisnički račun, tada će te datoteke i mape postati potpuno nedostupne.

EFS -ov ključ za šifriranje pohranjen je unutar Windowsa^(Windows) , a ne u TPM hardveru računala (koristi se u BitLockeru^(BitLocker) ). Nedostatak korištenja EFS -a je taj što napadač može izvući ključ za šifriranje iz sustava, dok BitLocker nema ovaj nedostatak. Ipak, EFS je jednostavan način za brzu zaštitu vaših pojedinačnih datoteka i mapa na računalu koje dijeli nekoliko korisnika. U svakom slučaju^(Anyway) , bez gubljenja vremena, pogledajmo kako šifrirati datoteke^(Files) i mape^(Folders) pomoću sustava šifriranja datoteka^{(Encrypting File System)} ( EFS ) u sustavu Windows 10^{(Windows 10)}uz pomoć dolje navedenog vodiča.

Encrypt Files and Folders with Encrypting File System (EFS) in Windows 10

You may have heard about BitLocker drіve encryption available in Windowѕ 10, but that’s not the only one enсryption method out there, because Windows Pro & Enterprise Edition also offers Encrypting File System оr EFS. The main dіfferеnce between BitLocker & EFS enсryption is that BitLocker encrypts an entire drive whereas EFS lets yоu encrypt individual fileѕ аnd folders.

BitLocker is very useful if you want to encrypt the entire drive to protect your sensitive or personal data and the encryption isn’t tied to any user account, in short, once BitLocker is enabled on a drive-by an administrator, every single user account on that PC will have that drive as encrypted. The only drawback of BitLocker is that it is dependent on trusted platform module or TPM hardware which must come with your PC for you to use BitLocker encryption.

Encrypting File System (EFS) is useful for those who only protect their individual file or folders rather than the entire drive. EFS is tied to the particular user account, i.e. encrypted files can only be accessed by the particular user account who encrypted those files & folders. But if a different user account is used, then those files & folders will become completely inaccessible.

EFS’s encryption key is stored inside the Windows rather than the PC’s TPM hardware (used in BitLocker). The drawback of using EFS is that the encryption key can be extracted by an attacker from the system, whereas BitLocker doesn’t have this shortcoming. But still, EFS is an easy way to quickly protect your individual files & folders on PC shared by several users. Anyway, without wasting any time, let’s see How to Encrypt Files and Folders with Encrypting File System (EFS) in Windows 10 with the help of the below-listed tutorial.

Encrypt Files and Folders with Encrypting File System (EFS) in Windows 10
