Want to protect your SAS dataset with a password to protect it from other users. You can use the pw = option in the SAS datastep. Here is an example demonstrating the same. This will protect your data with read/write authorization.
DATA <EXAMPLE DATA> (ENCRYPT = YES PW = <PASSWORD>); SET <EXAMPLE DATA>; RUN;
If you lose your password, a lot of time and effort is needed to decrypt the file.
