Sending sensitive documents via email can pose a security risk, especially if the content is confidential. One way to enhance security is by password protecting the document before sending it. Here's how you can password lock a document sent by email:

  1. Open the document you want to send.
  2. Click on 'File' and then 'Save As'.
  3. Choose the location where you want to save the document.
  4. Look for an option like 'Security Options' or 'Encrypt with Password'.
  5. Enter a strong password that only the recipient should know.
  6. Save the document with the password protection.
  7. Attach the password-protected document to your email.
  8. Send the email with instructions on how to open the password-protected document.

By following these steps, you can add an extra layer of security to your email attachments and protect sensitive information from unauthorized access.
