Roxio Secure Burn
Roxio Secure Burn is a CD/DVD burning and authoring utility for macOS that encrypts and secures optical media with password protection. It allows users to create encrypted disc images, burn files to physical discs, and manage disc content while adding encryption layers for sensitive data. The app is part of Corel's Roxio suite, which historically targeted users who needed reliable optical media creation and security features for archival or data protection purposes.</description> <parameter name="recommendation">No search results were available to confirm whether Roxio Secure Burn has received a native Apple Silicon build or remains Intel-only. Given that the app handles optical media burning — a feature that has become increasingly uncommon on modern Macs as the industry has moved away from optical drives — it is worth checking the current status before September 2028, when Rosetta 2 is removed and Intel-only apps will stop launching on macOS 28. Contact Corel directly or visit their support site to ask whether a native Apple Silicon version is available or planned. If Roxio Secure Burn is no longer actively maintained, and you rely on disc burning, consider whether your workflow can migrate to a cloud backup service or external storage, or explore whether a modern open-source burning tool is still available for macOS.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionRoxio Secure Burn appears to be discontinued, as it was last updated to version 1.0 and Corel has largely moved away from consumer Mac software. For secure disc burning needs, consider using Burn, a free and actively maintained CD/DVD burning application for Mac that supports Apple Silicon. While Burn doesn't have built-in encryption like Roxio Secure Burn, you can achieve similar security by creating encrypted disk images using macOS's built-in Disk Utility before burning them to disc. This combination provides the same end result of password-protected optical media with modern macOS compatibility.
