Using Cartridge Password Protection
The GoVault system application software provides cartridge password
protection features that you can use to:
• Create and use a unique password for each GoVault cartridge
• Change the password or remove password protection for a cartridge
• Perform a Security Erase Cartridge function to reuse the cartridge if
you forget or lose the password
About Cartridge
Password Protection
3
Before setting up password protection for your GoVault cartridges,
carefully consider the following issues:
• If you set a password for a cartridge, you will have to type the
password each time you insert the cartridge into the dock.
• You might want to use a cartridge password if the data stored on the
cartridge is sensitive to you and you don’t want the data to be seen by
others. But if you are certain the cartridge will always be in your
possession, you might not want to use a password.
• There is no possible data recovery from a forgotten or lost cartridge
password.
Though the data will be lost, you can perform a Security Erase
Cartridge function and reformat the cartridge so it can be reused.
Always record cartridge passwords and store them in a safe, secure
location.
Caution: If you forget or lose a cartridge password, you will not
be able to access or retrieve any of the data on the
cartridge. The data will be lost. There is no recovery
from a forgotten or lost cartridge password.
