SharePoint helps you to access your files, wherever you are. If you want to add security to this comfortable storage solution, Boxcryptor can help.

Add Boxcryptor for free for one of the best, and most secure cloud solutions.

Seamless Integration of Boxcryptor and SharePoint

When synchronizing SharePoint with your PC or Mac (optionally through OneDrive Sync Client or Windows Explorer), Boxcryptor creates a virtual drive. Within this virtual drive, the creation of new encrypted folders is possible. Furthermore you can decide to encrypt existing files on this drive. Within this virtual drive every file that is created, or copied into the encrypted folders will be encrypted automatically and therefore, be perfectly safe. The encryption occurs on-the-fly, which means that within the Boxcryptor drive you can work with your files, as usual. Boxcryptor handles the complete and secure encryption in the background.
