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.
