i hope it will be for both: files and folders.
if it could be even more further developed in smt like password protection for access.. but it's just a dreams

Yes, why not?
But you guarantee that CIS is always running. If it is disabled, the access will be released.

maybe cis could do something to the files and folders themselves to add the protection in case cis isn't running. i don't know what this would be or if it's even possible but just an idea

doubtfully- all programs that provide such "protection" are based on them being in memory and overriding all access attempts.
only once i saw a program with other mechanics: it modified actual files, pre-writing self-module in, os when accessed it will start.(creepy idea..)

Tiny Firewall 2005 had this feature. You could have any combination of warn and block on read and write, etc...
Too bad it doesn't run on any recent OS. XP SP3 has lots of problems with tiny firewall.
Also it was killed off by CA in 2006.

It would be very useful to be able to isolate applications (e. g. browsers) that need to have access to the internet in just some limited number of folders so that they wouldn't be able to access any other folders anyhow.
