Tresorit - Sneakyone - 09-05-2024 Tresorit: Comprehensive Setup and Usage Guide 1. Download and Install Tresorit Visit the official Tresorit website. Click "Get Tresorit" to download the app for your operating system (Windows, macOS, Linux). Open the downloaded installer and follow the instructions to complete the installation. Once installed, launch Tresorit and either create an account or sign in if you already have one. 2. Understanding the Tresorit Interface The main interface of Tresorit includes several key sections:     Dashboard: Displays an overview of your storage usage and recent activity.   Tresors: Secure folders where you can store encrypted files.   Shared Items: Shows files and folders that you have shared with others.   Settings: Manage account settings, preferences, and security options.   The layout is designed for easy navigation, allowing quick access to your secure files and settings. 3. Create a Tresor (Secure Folder) Tresors are secure, encrypted folders where your files are stored. To create a new Tresor:     In the Tresorit interface, click the "Create Tresor" button.   Give the Tresor a name and select a location on your computer or in the cloud.   Click "Create" to set up the Tresor.   Once created, you can drag and drop files into the Tresor to encrypt them automatically. 4. Upload Files to a Tresor Tresorit automatically encrypts files uploaded to a Tresor. To upload files:     Open the Tresor where you want to store the files.   Click "Upload" or simply drag and drop files into the Tresor.   Once uploaded, the files will be encrypted and stored securely in the Tresor. You can access them from any device with Tresorit installed. 5. Sync Files Across Devices Tresorit allows you to sync your files across multiple devices, ensuring you have access to them wherever you go. To sync files:     Ensure that Tresorit is installed and logged in on all your devices.   Create a Tresor or select an existing one, and enable the "Sync" option.   Files in synced Tresors will automatically update across all devices whenever changes are made. 6. Share Tresors or Files Securely Tresorit enables you to securely share entire Tresors or individual files with others. To share a Tresor:     Right-click the Tresor you want to share and select "Share".   Enter the email address of the recipient.   Choose the permissions (e.g., read-only, editor) for the recipient and click "Send Invitation".   To share an individual file:     Open the Tresor containing the file.   Right-click the file and select "Share Link".   Set the expiration date, password, and access level for the link, then click "Create Link".   Sharing via Tresorit ensures that recipients must have the correct permissions or password to access the shared content. 7. Manage Shared Files You can manage the files and folders you’ve shared by adjusting permissions or revoking access. To manage shared files:     Go to the "Shared Items" section in the Tresorit interface.   Click on the file or folder you shared to view details and adjust permissions (e.g., revoke access, change editor status).   Tresorit allows you to retain full control over who can access, edit, or view your shared files. 8. Set Up End-to-End Encryption Tresorit uses end-to-end encryption to protect your files, ensuring they are encrypted before they leave your device. To enable end-to-end encryption:     When you create or upload a file to a Tresor, encryption is applied automatically.   Only you and those you have authorized to access your Tresors will have the keys needed to decrypt and view the files. 9. Recover Deleted Files Tresorit allows you to recover deleted files within a certain timeframe. To recover a deleted file:     Go to the Tresor where the file was stored.   Click on the "Deleted Items" tab and locate the file.   Right-click the file and select "Restore" to recover it.   This feature is useful for accidentally deleted files and can help protect your data from permanent loss. 10. Use Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) Tresorit supports two-factor authentication (2FA) for an additional layer of security. To enable 2FA:     Log into your Tresorit account.   Go to the "Settings" menu and select "Security".   Enable 2FA and link your account with a mobile authentication app (e.g., Google Authenticator).   Once enabled, you’ll need to enter both your password and a verification code from the 2FA app to access your Tresorit account. 11. Set Expiry and Password Protection for Shared Links For added security, Tresorit allows you to set expiration dates and passwords for shared file links. To set expiry or password protection:     When creating a shared link, select "Link Settings".   Set the expiration date and create a password for the link.   This ensures that your shared content is only accessible for a limited time or to those who have the correct password. 12. Generate Activity Reports Tresorit allows you to track activity and generate reports on file access, modifications, and shares. To generate an activity report:     Go to the "Reports" section in the interface.   Choose the type of report you want to generate (e.g., file activity, user access).   Activity reports help you monitor how your files are being accessed and shared, providing insights into your data security.
