How Do I Enable/Disable
HP ProtectTools on My Pocket PC?
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.
CAUTION: HP ProtectTools provides strong protection of your Pocket
Ä
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.

Enabling Security

You should only need to enable security one time. You can make
changes to any of your security settings at a later time without

refer to "Manage Security Settings" in Chapter 7 of the User's
