In this video tutorial, Leo Notenboom addresses the common issue of password-protecting email attachments. He explains that there is no built-in option within standard email protocols to encrypt an attachment separately from the entire email. Email encryption is complicated due to the lack of standardized methods and varying implementations by different email providers. As a result, securing individual attachments through password protection directly in email services is not feasible. Notenboom highlights the challenges posed by these inconsistencies among email systems, leading to a lack of robust encryption options for attachments.
