Privacy & Security for Clipboard History on Windows
7/4/2025
Clipboard data can include credentials, contracts, and PII. A privacy-first manager like Clipboard Expander Pro stores everything locally and offers optional encryption at rest.
Recommended policy
- Disable cloud sync for sensitive environments.
- Enable encrypted storage for protected groups.
- Use redaction or never-store rules for transient secrets.
- Audit hotkeys and access for shared machines.
