2.3 Unlocking the Security Partition
Anytime you run KDMElite200, you will be asked to login using your security password. You need to
provide the correct security password in order to access the Defender Elite200’s secure partition.
When the login screen appears:
1. Enter your password in the
Password
field.
2. Click on the
Login
button.
Caution!
If you enter your password incorrectly six times in a row (six is the default setting, this 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. To cancel the login process, click on the
Cancel
button. Unplugging and
then reinserting your Defender Elite200 or manually running KDMElite200.exe will bring the login
window back.
Once you have successfully logged in to KDMElite200, the Defender Elite200’s secure partition will be
accessible through My Computer or Windows Explorer. For more information on accessing the secure
partition, see section 2.5
Encrypting Files and Folders
on page 23.
Caution!
Once KDMElite200 has started, you should never disconnect your device without first closing
KDMElite200 properly by clicking the KDMElite200 task bar icon and selecting
Unmount Kanguru
Defender
as described in section 2.12
Unmounting Your Defender Elite200
on page 32.
Note:
If your Defender drive is being managed by KRMC, you may see an
Autorun
checkbox. This
means that your administrator has configured your drive to auto-execute a file saved on your drive’s secure
partition every time you successfully login. You can disable the Autorun functionality by unchecking
this box.
