On Windows, it is possible to do this, but it is a little complicated, and probably unnecessary.Ĭloud = Evernote's servers in California. On the Mac, you can have a notebook on an external drive ( ), but it is not supported by Evernote (meaning that you are on your own if anything goes wrong). can i have a similar thing done for sensitive data using a potable external drive.?Īnother good question. I think it is easy for me to understand the steps given by GM. ' and I've got all of my sensitive data in a Local Notebook'

There are similar solutions for Windows (as you might expect, it requires a little more effort, but it is easily doable). All of this sounds like a lot of effort, but it is actually extremely easy to set up (on a Mac) and takes no time at all to manage on a daily basis (I just plug in an external drive for the backups and the Mac does the rest). I'm currently working with my computer password protected, with an encrypted local drive (FileVault on the Mac), hourly backups of everything including my Evernote database (using TimeMachine on the Mac), and I've got all of my sensitive data in a Local Notebook. Password protecting your devices is the first step. I think taking things one step at a time is a good start. Sure! BNF is the expert on TrueCrypt, though. Can i ask you further if I have trouble in doing so. Learnt one thing only now -Password protect and Encryption are 2 things. In other words, it is far more effective to secure the devices, and not only is it easy to do, but it protects all your data, not just a single app. If none, it might be best to use the web client if it is possible for you to get by with it. Work? It depends on how much control you have. You just set up a pin code for the lock screen and set it to wipe your data after ten failed attempts. The answer is actually pretty simple: encrypt and password protect your devices. Sorry GM - it would be much appreciated if you could explain in the most simplest way. My fear is that the chances of hacking my notes is multiple as every device has evernote installed.how would you protect that happening? I realize that evernote gets synchronized on my home PC, on my office PC om my mobile as well as the Ipad since all of them run the application. May be I have not correctly understood everything you said.
