# How to configure Auto Encryption folders

## What is Auto Encryption Folder on Egnyte?

Auto-Encryption is a feature that enables administrators to ensure all files remain encrypted without manual intervention. Once an admin designates a folder as an auto-encryption folder, any new files added will be encrypted periodically by FenixPyre.
