Hi! How to set a password for Jaxx wallet desktop client? I start it and it opens without asking any password. Is it ok?

It looks like they don't have it and It has been discussed a few weeks ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/jaxx/comments/6ctvwa/is_it_possible_to_have_a_password_for_the_desktop/ . The wallet is only protected with the 4 digit PIN, Jaxx definitely have some security issues and Its worth mentioning that a theft of 500k $ from users funds has been reported a few days ago.

So as of today 1/9/18 - there  is no password option - just the pin. Anyone know of any improvements in their security issues that was mentioned previously?
