Are you still thinking about it or what it is the current status?
I am not sure if I should have some documents on my OneDrive or on Evernote

This is a must-have feature for data protection especially when there are personal information on Onedrive.

This should be done as soon as possible. It’s hard to share something and not being able to protect it.
Thank you! -

...i jak postęp prac? Wdrażamy w kilku firmach RODO (GPDR). Ludzie potrzebują tej funkcji. Czemu w (OneDrive personal) funkcja jest a w Business nie ma !!!? Jak to jest możliwe? Czy może jest możliwość odpalenia tej opcji przez powershell?

Would be great if you add the option to encrypt files and folders. And de-crypt them only with a password.

Hi, When is this coming? Can't wait. Using shared folders with my clients (I'm an accountant) is great but if I can then password protect them too this would be awesome.It would mean that even if an email goes astray for any reason the sensitive files are still secure. Sweet! :)

Any updates on this - will need to be able to do this for the new GDPR - need to ensure all files with data are password protected - but need to have one drive open for all basic stuff all the time.

Doug (Team Microsoft) - Any update on this? You've been looking at it for more than a year now. Its a safe argument that the customer requirement hasn't changed.

How hard is this to add? Dropbox has had this for ages. This is a deal killer for being able to switch to Office 365/OneDrive. The new external sharing features with so-called "Identity Verification" (https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/OneDrive-Blog/Introducing-a-new-secure-external-sharing-experience/ba-p/112624) is NOT helpful. The objective is to have a way to safely share files with people whose e-mail accounts might be compromised by giving them a password (by phone or text message or pre-arrangement) that they must use to access the files. If someone's email account is compromised, the Identity Verification feature is totally useless.
