Secure Directory

The Secure Directory allows your to make anything placed within it password protected. That means that users accessing a document located in the Secure Directory will be prompted for a username and password before being allowed to view that document. You can authorize individual users to access the Secure Directory by using the handy administration utility that comes with this install.

Administer
If you already have the Secure Directory installed, you can use the administration tool to allow individual users access to the Secure Directory. Furthermore, you can remove users that you may have previously added, thus denying them access to the Secure Directory. Since the administration tool has text to guide you through the process of adding and removing users, you can click the "ADMINISTER" button below to go directly to it.

Use
To password protect parts of your Entry, simply upload them to the "secure" directory located in your Team's root directory. Linking to a document within the "secure" directory should be done just like you would link to a document within any other directory -- nothing extra is needed.
