Microsoft has announced its service worldwide October of 2019.
The new service offers a protected area on OneDrive, which you can only access through one authentication method or a second authentication step, such as your fingerprint, a PIN or a code sent to you via email or SMS .
Your locked files in Personal Vault have an extra level of security, keeping you safe when someone accesses your account or your device. The Personal Vault appears as a special folder in your account.
