will allow that supervisor access to the system to reformat,
reconfigure and redistribute it. Without the supervisor password,
this abandoned system would be locked and unsalvageable.
Additionally, this is a useful feature should the supervisor want to
change the system or network password for security purposes, as
is often the case with frequent changes in personnel.
Boot String
Toshiba notebooks have a unique “Boot String” sequence that
helps to identify the system in the event that it is lost or stolen.
Completely user-programmable, a sample boot string might read,
“This computer belongs to John Smith, Company XYZ. Please
call for reward if found. 555-1212.” The boot string sequence is
displayed prior to the hard drive start-up and serves as the link for
recovery of a notebook.
Hard disk drive password
For added security of data, Toshiba has implemented the hard disk
drive password feature across all portable platforms. Should the
hard drive be removed, transferred and installed into another
system with this password enabled, that user would be prevented
from accessing the drive and reading sensitive data without
knowledge of the coded password.
HDD supervisor level password
As with the general supervisor password, Toshiba offers a hard
drive-specific supervisor level password for added security. Again,
in the event that an employee forgets his or her password or leaves
the company, data may be recovered from the hard drive easily
and securely.
