Using Security Features

7.From the Fail-Safe Settings screen:

❏Select the number of attempts you have to answer your hint question correctly.

❏Select what the device should do if you fail to answer your hint question correctly after the associated number of attempts.

Note: It is recommended that you select the default, Pause before retrying question.

❏Select whether to keep security after a hard reset.

Note: It is recommended that you select this option to ensure that the data stored in your iPAQ Pocket PC remains secure after a hard reset.

8.Tap Next.9.From the Encryption Settings screen:

❏Select the encryption strength.

◆Lite is the fastest but least secure algorithm.

◆Blowfish is both fast and secure.

◆Triple DES and AES are the most secure, but AES encrypts data faster than Triple DES.

Note: It is recommended that you use the default, AES.

❏Select which data you want encrypted. If you select to have the My Documents folder encrypted, you can also choose whether to encrypt media files (for example, audio or video files). Media files often take longer to encrypt and decrypt than other file types.
