Cisdem AppCrypt

If you have programs installed on your Mac that you don't really want any prying eyes to see without your permission, either because they contain confidential information or just because you want others to respect your privacy, you'll appreciate the existence of an app like Cisdem AppCrypt. 

This tool allows you to protect access to any program on your desktop with a password that's fairly simple. All you need to do is pick a general password for AppCrypt and select individually which programs you want to block so that no one can freely log onto them. 

That way, with a single password, you'll gain the option to restrict access to tools like your web browser, your favorite chat apps, or any game that's especially violent or otherwise inappropriate for under-age family members, or for example when it comes to programs that are installed at your work computer. 

Uses for Cisdem AppCrypt are varied, however both installing and running the app are very straightforward. In just a few minutes, you'll improve your Mac's privacy settings in a very easy-to-use way.
