I am not confident that my private documents will remain that way.<BR/><BR/>The ability to password protect a document would help considerably. I want my document stored on Google's server encrypted with the key being the one-way encrypted version of my password. That way if you don't know my password, your not going to be able to get at my content unless you have the resources of a major government.<BR/><BR/>I want my document decrypted after it reaches my computer, so it can't be sniffed. I want my changes to be encrypted before they leave my computer, for the same reason. No clear text going over the wire or being stored at Google. Until I "publish" that is, at which point the encryption would be dropped.<BR/><BR/>Until this level of security is implemented I won't use Google docs for anything remotely sensitive.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03204169576149456728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-62912498445011461432007-08-03T15:39:00.000-07:002007-08-03T15:39:00.000-07:00I left a comment on the original post, but I'll po...I left a comment on the original post, but I'll post the gist of it here too.

In the meantime, please contact GDS support and we will be happy to purge images from your account."<BR/><BR/>So this issue is on their radar.Matt Cuttshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13526072281417654587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-72944418761503746362007-08-02T14:59:00.000-07:002007-08-02T14:59:00.000-07:00Two days later, the image from my Blogger post is ...Two days later, the image from my Blogger post is no longer available.

And Google Documents would be a lot better with an additional layer of security. Despite Google's promises of privacy for your documents, most people are wary of storing personal information there. That's because as soon and as long as they are logged into their Google account, the private data is exposed, one click away.<BR/><BR/>You forgot to log out of a public computer? You have the "remember-me" option checked and you lent your computer to someone? All your data is available to them. Google Documents should allow you to set certain documents apart as being more secure, therefore requiring an extra password check to access them.<BR/><BR/>I blogged about it <A HREF="http://lepetitradiateur.blogspot.com/2007/01/suggestion-increased-security-in.html" REL="nofollow">here</A>.Hugohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10791323181993026851noreply@blogger.com
