EFS - Encrypted File System Overview

An Encrypted File System (EFS) is a technology that provides a layer of encryption to protect sensitive data stored on a computer's file system. EFS operates at the file level, encrypting individual files or directories, making it an effective mechanism for securing data at rest. It is commonly used in various operating systems to enhance the confidentiality and integrity of stored information. Ensure you are familiar with the specific steps to encrypt and decrypt files using EFS on the operating system you are studying for the exam.   **🔥 Join the Geekus Maximus Elite! 🔥** If this video saved your day (or just made it brighter), smash that **Like** button and **Subscribe**!
