Device Usage (Mac Environment) - Kingston Technology DataTraveler 4000 User Manual

Device Usage (Mac Environment)

Once the DT4000 has been initialized, you can
access the secure data partition and utilize the
device options by logging into the device with
your password. To do so, follow these steps:
1. Insert the DT4000 into a USB port on your
notebook or desktop and enter your pass-
word (see
Figure 8.1
2. Once you've typed your password, click the
'Login' button to continue.
• If the correct password is entered, the
DT4000 will unlock and you can begin
using the device.
• If an incorrect password is entered, an
error message will appear just below
the 'Hint' field, indicating a login
failure (see
Figure 8.2
During the login process, if a bad password
is entered, you will be given another
opportunity to enter the correct password;
however, there is a built-in security feature
that tracks the number of failed login
attempts *. If this number reaches the pre-
configured value of 10 failed attempts, the
DT4000 will lock and require a device
format of the secure data partition prior to
next use.
THIS MEANS THAT ALL DATA STORED
ON THE DT4000 WILL BE LOST.
For more details on this feature, see
'Device Lockout' on page 20.
*Note: Once you authenticate to the device successfully, the failed login counter will reset.
