Use Identity Manager

If Identity Manager is enabled on your device, you can use it to securely store and use important
identity credentials, such as login information and one-time passwords to applications and online
accounts. You must have an online account to use Identity Manager. Typcially, you create the
account during device setup. However, you can also create it after setup when you enable the
Identity Manager feature.
Identity Manager can automatically launch a specified application, fill in your username and
password, and then log you in. It can even generate strong passwords for you, so that you can
lock down your important accounts.
Identity Manager also allows you to back up your encrypted Identity Manager data to your
Online Security Vault in your online account. The backup synchronizes password data between
Imation Personal devices and allows you to securely restore all your passwords to a new device
if your device is ever lost or stolen. Only you can access and decrypt your passwords.
Identity Manager does not store your passwords in a file on the file system of the flash drive, so
malware cannot copy your password database. Also, since your passwords are not typed in this
provides added protection from keyloggers and other crimeware.
The Identity Manager works with VeriSign's VIP service to lock down many important online
accounts, including eBay, PayPal, AOL, and Geico accounts. This new technology generates a one-
time password for each login, locking down your online account so that it can only be used from
your device.
