Yes, there is little benefit if one relies on a password protected PST
(or OST) as the one and only layer of defence.

However, there are casual and undetermined attempts to access other
peoples data, and by password protecting the OST as one of many other
layers of defence, you make it that much more difficult; but of course
- never impossible.

I simply wanted to know if someone had found a way to password
protected an OST like a PST - separate from domain credentials.  I am
not looking for an elaborate solution or undermining a higher-level
goal.  I do appreciate all of your thoughts.
