 23.   How to Reset the datAshur Personal

2

In the event both the Admin and User PINs have been forgotten, or the user wants to delete all data stored on the  

datAshur Personal

2

, please follow the instructions below.

The reset process will clear all cryptographic parameters including both User and Admin PINs. This means the  

datAshur Personal

2

 will revert back to the default User PIN set as11223344 - see section 4 on page 6 on how to change the 

User PIN. Also, since this will force the creation of a new encryption key, the datAshur Personal

2

 will have to be reformatted 

(see section 24 or 25).

Caution:

   Resetting the datAshur Personal

2

 will delete all data stored on the drive.

 brute force mechanism will trigger and the Admin 

PIN, the encryption key along with all data will be deleted and lost forever.

If both Admin and User PINs have been created and a User enters an incorrect User PIN 10 (ten) consecutive times, the 

datAshur Personal

2

 brute force mechanism will trigger and the User PIN will be deleted. All data will remain on the 

datAshur Personal

2

 and can only be accessed by the Admin entering the correct Admin PIN.

If Admin enters an incorrect Admin PIN 10 (ten) consecutive times, then both the User and Admin PINs, the encryption key 

and all data will be deleted and lost forever. The datAshur Personal

2

 will then revert back to factory default settings and will 

need to be formatted before it can be reused.

The table below illustrates the different PIN set-up states and what happens when entering an incorrect Admin or User PIN 

incorrectly 10 (ten) consecutive times. 

 

The datAshur Personal

2

, unlike other similar drives, incorporates a random number generator, once the drive is reset a new 

encryption key is randomly generated.
