14. Securing Your Pocket PC Phone
There are two kinds of security on your device. You can protect your SIM card from unauthorized
use by assigning a PIN (Personal Identification Number). Additionally, you can prevent
unauthorized access to any part of the device by using password protection.

Protect your SIM card with a PIN

1. Tap Start > Phone.
2. On the Phone screen, tap Menu > Options > Phone
tab.
3.
Tap Require PIN when phone is used. To change the
PIN at any time, tap Change PIN.

Protect your device with a password

1. Tap Start > Settings > Personal tab > Lock.
2. Select the Prompt if device unused for check box,
and in the box to the right, select how long your
device must be idle before a password is required. In
the Password type box, select the type of password
you would like to use. Enter the password and
confirm it.
3. On the Hint tab, enter a phrase that will help you
remember your password, but doesn’t allow others
to guess your password. The hint will be displayed
after the wrong password is entered four times.
4. Tap OK. The next time your device is turned on, you
will be prompted to enter your password.
