Your data stays in the browser

Processed content is not uploaded to WorkToolset. Required libraries may be loaded by the site, but the file stays in the browser.

GOOD TO KNOW

Limitations to know

  • Losing the password makes the data unrecoverable.
  • The content is encrypted, but the original file name remains readable in the .wtsenc format header.
  • Very large files can exceed available browser memory.
  • For regulated or high-assurance requirements, use an audited dedicated encryption product.
