Add Password Protection To Folder

The Add_Password_Protection_To_Folder command allows users to encrypt folders in the data tree with password protection.

NOTE 1: We strongly recommend that users DO NOT store data in their workspace that requires encryption, but some organizational policies require certain TEXT_DATA fields to be encrypted.

NOTE 2: There is no mechanism for recovering forgotten passwords. If the password used to encrypt a folder is lost then that data will no longer be readable.
