Apple has been very inclined to enhancing security on the different data files of its Mac computers. A variety of choices were offered by Apple, such as the FileVault. This could encrypt whole disks in Lion or other OS X versions, not only that the FileVault encrypts whole disks, but also it encrypts data images which is able to secure data collection and other documents.
Not that Apple already made software which secures data files and data collection, but rather it has also created a software which secures a person’s documents. Though the iWork program, the private documents of an individual are being protected, with the use of several steps that one must be able to properly follow in order to make the software work easily.
However, there are companies such as ElcomSoft which thinks the steps in using iWork are bit complicated. In fact, according to them, the consumers would be more comfortable on softwares that only require them to have a username and a password. In this way, the Apple software was tested and then upgraded and they gathered some very satisfying results.
