The Self-destruct page lets you configure self-destruct settings for Palm OS devices so that data
is not accessible from handheld devices that are lost or stolen. When the self-destruct feature is
activated, the data on the device is made unusable and the device must be manually reset,
which restores the device to its out-of-the-box state.
To use the self-destruct options for Palm OS devices, you must select the Require a Password
to Be Set on the Handheld check box on the Security page.
IMPORTANT: Use caution when you use the self-destruct feature. Be sure to allow an
adequate number of password attempts and an adequate number of days since the last
connection or synchronization to prevent data loss to users who incorrectly enter the password
or do not connect or synchronize the device during a short vacation.
For Palm devices using HotSync, if the user synchronizes the device using the same desktop or
laptop machine as usual, the data can be restored by HotSync.

Bad Password Attempts: Select the Enforce Self-destruct check box and specify the
