Create a Shared Folder
If you are a user belonging to the administrators group, you can click Create to create shared folders and
assign access privileges to the folders.
Remove a Shared Folder
If you are a user belonging to the administrators group, you can click Delete to remove any shared folder
created by yourself.
Important: Removing any shared folder also removes all data within it. If you still need the data, back them up first.
Encrypt a Shared Folder
When creating a shared folder, you can choose to encrypt it.
2
After a folder is encrypted, you can use the
Encryption drop-down menu to edit the folder.
The AES 256-bit encryption can block off all unauthorized access attempts. Without the encryption key, other
people will not be able to use the encrypted data even if they remove the hard drives from your Synology NAS
and mount it on their device.
Note: Tick Mount automatically on startup to mount the encrypted folder automatically after Synology NAS starts
up next time. By default, encrypted shared folder will be unmounted automatically on startup for security reasons. If
you reset default passwords with the reset button located on the Synology NAS, encrypted shares will be unmounted,
and the option to automatically mount will be disabled.
