Password-protect a salary certificate before sharing
Lock your salary certificate before you send it, without uploading it.
A salary certificate, common in the UAE and wider Gulf for visas, loans and bank onboarding, states your pay and employer on official letterhead. A password keeps it readable only to the intended recipient. This tool encrypts the file in your browser, so the certificate is never uploaded to add the password.

Why lock a salary certificate on your device
A salary certificate states your income on official letterhead. Encrypting it locally means the unprotected version is never uploaded to a server.
