How do I password protect a folder saved in Egnyte?

How do I password protect a folder saved in Egnyte, or otherwise restrict access to a folder that should be kept private from other users in the company? Even my folders that are "private" to me are fully accessible to all company users.

As a user, I can state that I am not sure that you can password protect the folder, but you can limit who you share it with. You can also send a "user only" link that cannot be forwarded without your permission to a third party user. Hope this helps.

Rights are assigned to folders. It really depends on WHAT egnyte product you have, and there are several. Your admin should be able to answer/resolve this. If you are using an NTFS package these rights are changed within your Active Directory and synced to egnyte. It sounds as though the inherited rights for AD or Egnyte need adjustment. Login to your web product at egnyte dot com and choose a folder under "shared or private" and use the "share>folder permissions" to see what rights are assigned (this might be show both users and/or groups depending on what made sense for your admin at the time).
