If you use Cisdem AppCrypt to block apps and websites on Mac, it is important to configure it properly to prevent bypass attempts. In this guide, we will show you how to configure its settings and strengthen its protection.
1. Set A Strong and Secure Password
When you first launch Cisdem AppCrypt, a window will appear asking you to create a password. This password is used to unlock both the locked apps and the Cisdem AppCrypt itself.

b. If you want to use Cisdem AppCrypt to block yourself, consider asking a friend to set a password for you, or set a random password that you won’t remember.
2. Enable Automatic Startup
To prevent Cisdem AppCrypt from being bypassed through a reboot, we suggest you enable Automatic Startup function of Cisdem AppCrypt.
Just go to the main window of Cisdem AppCrypt, tap Preferences, check the option “Launch at System Startup”

A tech-savvy may bypass Cisdem AppCrypt via 3 system apps: System Settings, Terminal and Activity Monitor, so you are suggested to lock these 3 apps and prevent them to be accessed without a password.
These 3 apps are locked by default, just don’t remove them from the App Lock list.

Proper configuration ensures reliable protection, taking a few extra minutes to apply these best practices will help you get the most out of Cisdem AppCrypt’s security features.
