Article Summary

This article will explain protected folders and how to manage them in the Admin Dashboard.
Protected folders are locations within the organization where protected content can be consumed. A file will not be consumable when outside of a designated protected folder. Examples include endpoint common user folders, on-premises network drives, and cloud-based document-sharing services.

How to manage protected folders on the Admin dashboard


Step 1: Log into the Anchor Admin Dashboard. Select Settings > User Roles. 

Step 2: Navigate to the desired user role, select the "action" symbol on the right, denoted by three vertical dots, and click Edit.


Step 3: Select Protected Folders > Add a protected folder and enter the folder path. Click on Add. Please note any file added to this protected folder will automatically be Anchored. We recommend Anchoring all files inside this folder to ensure pre-existing files are Anchored.
