Security functions
Your notebook enables you to protect your system and personal data in a number of ways against
unauthorised access. By combining these options, you can achieve maximum protection for your
system.
In this chapter you will learn which security functions your notebook is equipped with, which
advantages these functions offer you and how to configure and use them.
!
Please consider that in the case of improper use, you yourself will also be unable to
access your system and your data. Please note therefore the following hints:
· Back up your data on external data carriers at regular intervals.
· Passwords must be assigned for some security functions. Please be sure to note
these passwords, as otherwise you will no longer be able to access your system.
We recommend that you make a note of the passwords and keep them in a safe
place.
If you lose both the User and the Admin passwords, you must contact our Help Desk. The
telephone numbers are contained in the supplement "Help Desk". The loss of passwords
is not a warranty case and is therefore subject to charge.
