INTRODUCTION

Introduction

Fingerprint Utility This product has a fingerprint utility installed for the purpose of enrolling and recognizing fingerprints. By enrolling the ID and password to the fingerprint authen- tication device, it is no longer necessary to input the password from the keyboard. Just by swiping the finger against the fingerprint sensor, the following functions will be enabled:

Logon to Windows and access a security-enabled homepage through IE (Internet Explorer).

Files and folders can be encrypted/decrypted and third party access to them prevented.

Disable the password-protected screen-saver when returning from power-saving (sleep) mode.

Power-on Security and Single Sign-On feature.

Authentication of the User Password and Hard Disk Password when booting up the computer.

Fingerprint utility cannot be used in models that do not have a fingerprint module installed.
