It makes use of the latest MacBook Pro feature, Apple Touch ID sensor. By using their authorized fingerprint, users can unlock their apps and files in an instant.
With a simple drag-and-drop and password entry, apps like Apple Mail, Photos, Contacts, Safari, and even games can be prevented from opening without a password. This helps keep kids safe and their mind on homework while using the family Mac. The app also easily prevents the opening of selected files and folder, via the same simple drag-and-drop procedure.
"In many families, everyone shares the same computer, making it harder to keep your kids away from files, folders, and apps they shouldn't be accessing. iLocker for Mac takes care of all that with just a few clicks of a mouse and taps of a keyboard," says Chris Bohn, CEO of ProtectStar.
iLocker for Mac also offers smart ransomware protection via ProtectStar's intelligent Deep Detective (TM) feature. The exclusive feature constantly monitors and protects critical system areas and personal data with an additional layer of prevention against Mac-encrypting ransomware attacks like KeRanger and other malicious methods. Deep Detective observes all accesses to your macOS apps, folders, and files, reporting known, and thanks to modern heuristic methods, unknown hacker attack attempts.
The app is also perfect for office situations where more than one user accesses the same Mac, or when users are called away from their Mac in an office setting. An automatic-exit feature locks protected apps after a specific period of time away from the keyboard, increasing security.
