Logging Into Kdm - Kanguru Defender V2 User Manual

2.3 Logging into KDM

Note: You must complete the Setup Wizard before you can log into KDM. If you have not already
completed the Setup Wizard, please refer to section 2.2 The Setup Wizard on page 9 for more information
on completing the Setup Wizard.
Anytime you run KDM, you will be asked to login using your security password. You need to provide
the correct security password in order to access the Defender 's secure partition.
When the login screen appears:
1. Enter your password in the Password field.
2. Click on the Login button.
Once you have successfully logged in to KDM, the Defender's secure partition will be accessible through
My Computer or Windows Explorer. For more information on accessing the secure partition, see section
2.4 Encrypting Files and Folders on page 18.
To cancel the login process, click on the Cancel button. Unplugging and then reinserting your Defender
or manually running KDM.exe will bring the login window back.
Note: You can use the virtual keyboard when entering your password to prevent any keylogging
applications from recording your key strokes. For more information on the virtual keyboard, see section
2.2.4 The Virtual Keyboard on page 12.
Caution! If you enter your password incorrectly seven times in a row (default setting, may be different
depending on your setup), for security purposes, any data stored on the secure partition will automatically
be erased. You will be issued an on screen warning when you have one attempt remaining, to prevent
accidental erasure.
Caution! Once KDM has started, you should never disconnect your device without first closing KDM
properly by clicking the KDM taskbar icon and selecting Unmount Kanguru Defender as described in
section 2.10 Unmounting Your Defender on page 27.
