Improving security on your Alba Phone
Encrypting your memory
In order to prevent more technically capable persons gaining access to your
data, in the event that your phone is lost or stolen, you can encrypt your phone's
memory so that even if the password is breached the data will be unreadable.
Please note encryption will have a modest effect on performance but for most
tasks this will not be noticeable. For memory intensive tasks such as playing back
video files stored in the phone's memory it may cause some buffering.
In order to encrypt your phone you must first set a PIN or password as shown
above.
Before you encrypt, you must charge your phone to at least 80% battery capacity,
then with your phone still on charge go to:
•'Settings' , select 'Security' , then 'Encrypt phone' . The phone will then ask you for
your password. Type this, then press 'Encrypt phone' . The encryption can take up
to 90 minutes. Do not interrupt the process. Failure to follow this routine exactly
may result in your phone becoming unusable.
