Protecting your data (Security)

Your CLIÉ handheld includes a Security application that allows you to
protect your data from unauthorized users.
In Security, you can do the following:
• Lock and turn off your CLIÉ handheld so that it does not operate until you
enter the correct password.
• Set the CLIÉ handheld to automatically lock at/after a preset time, or
whenever you turn it off.
• Mask all records that you mark as private so the information appears
greyed out.
• Hide all records that you mark as private so they do not appear on any
screen.
Tip
All private records can be masked or hidden, with or without a password. Without a
password, the masked record will be unmasked when you tap it. With a password, you
must enter the password to view the private records.
Assigning a password
You can assign a password to protect your private records and to lock your
CLIÉ handheld.
