What is OutLock?
If you want to keep messages in your Outlook information store (eg. PST-File) safe
you can protect the store by using a password.
However there are several tools around the net which are able to recover the the
password for a PST-File.
OutLock overcomes this security leak by allowing you to encrypt (lock) sensitive
messages with a single click within your Outlook information store.
OutLock encrypts the message in place. Means that the original content of a message
is encrypted by OutLock and then saved to the message item. There is no additional
software necessary to encrypt or decrypt the messages.
How does it work?
After installing OutLock a new toolbar is added to the Outlook window:
If you want to lock (encrypt) a message simply select the message and click the
"Lock"-Button on the OutLock toolbar.

the message with. The longer the password the ber the encryption will be.
