Using HP ProtectTools

The HP ProtectTools provides on-device security protection, minimizing the risk of losing sensitive information on your HP iPAQ Pocket PC. HP ProtectTools provides strong authentication and encryption of email, calendar, contacts, notes, tasks, and/or all files stored in the My Documents folder. It can also be used to encrypt data stored on expansion cards.

ÄCAUTION: HP ProtectTools provides strong protection of your Pocket PC and the data stored on it. To access the Pocket PC, you will have the option of enabling either a PIN or password. If you forget your PIN or password, you will be able to access the device with a backup question and answer. If you forget both your PIN/password and question/answer, there is no way to unlock your device. You will have to reset it, resulting in the loss of all data on your iPAQ Pocket PC, including data stored in iPAQ File Store. It is recommended that you remember your PIN/password and question/answer.
