Password protect a folder

I'm going to have my iMac migrated to a Mac Mini, and I would like to password protect the folder where I store my passwords. Or, would it be best to drag the folder off the iMac onto a flash drive, before it is migrated? Thanks Allan

It would be best to copy your sensitive files to an external drive or a flash drive, then delete them from your iMac before migration to the Mac Mini.


But if you are doing the migration yourself there is no reason to worry about this.
