DOC (Microsoft Word Document) is a legacy text file format created by Microsoft Word application. In case your document contains sensitive or private information you can limit access to your DOC document by setting a password.

Password Protect is a free secure online web application that enables you to protect DOC documents. You can easily add a password to DOC document within a couple of clicks and download a protected file.

To password protect DOC documents we're using RC4 Encryption (40-bit). We do recommend exporting your DOC files to DOCX that supports AES encryption since RC4 can’t provide enough protection nowadays.

To secure DOC document using Password Protect application upload your file, type the password, click protect button, and download the protected file. The download link will be available for 24 hours. While we automatically remove your files from our servers we also enable you to remove the files manually. After you removed files manually the download link won’t work anymore.
