DECISION

Use Folder Lock only inside the approved HR controls

Folder Lock may fit supported-device storage for selected review drafts and lockers. It does not replace HR-platform permissions, enterprise identity, manager assignment, independent backup, legal retention decisions or tested password recovery.

HR scenario

People Operations pilots Folder Lock with fictional review documents. The team records version and licensing, tests locker creation, import, lock/unlock, manager-device behavior, backup and recovery limits, then approves only the devices and stages that passed.

PROCEDURE

Run the control in five steps

  1. 01Verify the current version, licensing and supported systems.
  2. 02Create a test locker with fictional review files.
  3. 03Test authentication, editing residue and closure.
  4. 04Test independent backup and recovery behavior.
  5. 05Document approved uses, exclusions and support ownership.
RECORD

Preserve an accountable decision trail

Keep version, installer source, license, system, locker location, test manifest, access and residue results, backup and recovery test, approved review stages, exclusions and review date.

Stop and investigate when

  • Product artwork is treated as independent assurance.
  • A locker is treated as enterprise identity management.
  • Cloud-related features are described as guaranteed backup.
BOUNDARY

State what the control does not prove

Does not replace provider permissions, guaranteed backup, password recovery or enterprise identity management. Validate manager assignment, provider permissions, plaintext copies, retention and recovery separately.

QUESTIONS

No. Continue to manage provider roles, manager assignments and device access separately.

Do supplied images prove current behavior?

No. They are legacy product materials; test the current installed version in the actual HR workflow.
