7.1 Increasing the level of protection for KOBRA Stick
in a company
The administrator in a company or public authority can determine how restrictive a
user's KOBRA Stick should be. The administrator can define the number of permitted
failed attempts and the time-out period for the user.
The administrator can use the time-out setting to determine after how many minutes the
activated KOBRA Stick is automatically blocked if neither reading nor writing access to
the stick takes place.
The user is not permitted to change these settings. This is not even possible after the
number of permitted failed attempts has been exceeded and the user PIN has been reset
to the factory settings.
