4.  LoggIng Into KdM

After completing the Setup Wizard, the KDM application will start. For security 

reasons, you will be asked to enter your password.

 

To continue, enter your password and then click on the 

Login

 button. 

note:

 Click on the 

VK

 icon to access the virtual keyboard. The virtual keyboard 

is a graphical representation of a standard keyboard layout. You can click on 

the keys on the virtual keyboard to enter your password in order to prevent 

keylogging software from spying your login password.

Once  KDM  has  confirmed  your  login  password,  it  will  mount  the  secure 

partition. You can now access the secure partition as you would a standard 

removable drive.

caution! 

If you exceed the number of allowed incorrect password entries, 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. 

5.  encryPtIng fILeS and foLderS

A key feature of the Kanguru Defender is Drag & Drop functionality; allowing 

you to simply drag files and folders that you want to encrypt onto the drive’s 

secure partition using the standard Windows Explorer interface. The Kanguru 

Defender automatically encrypts these files.

To open the secure partition, simply click on the KDM taskbar icon and select 

explore Security drive

Alternatively, you can access the private partition through My Computer or 

Windows Explorer. The secure partition will be labeled SECURITY once it is 

unlocked. 

note: 

Files saved on the secure partition of your Kanguru Defender device are 

only accessible after you have successfully logged into KDM.

defender

.

When you exit the application, KDM will lock the SECURITY partition and 

your files will become inaccessible until you login with the correct password 

again.

warning!

  Do  not  disconnect  the  Kanguru  Defender  without  first  properly 

unmounting your device. Doing so may result in file damage or corruption.

note: 

After you have umounted the security partition, use the “Safely Remove 

Hardware” option from the system tray to disconnect your drive. Otherwise 

you risk corrupting the data on your Kanguru Defender.
