Your n otebook has several security features that you can use to secure your
system from unauthorised access.
This chapter explains how to use each function, and what the bene ts are.
Please remember that in some cases, for example, forgetting your password,
you may be locked out and unable to access your data. T here fore,
please note the following information:
Make regular backups to extern al data carriers such as external hard
drives, USB memory modules, DVDs or Blu-ray Discs.
Some security functio
ns need you to choose passwords. Make a not e
of the passwords and ke
ep them in a safe place .
If you fo rget your passwords you will need to contact th e our Service
Desk. Deletion or re setting of passwords is not c overe d by your wa rran ty
and a charge will be made for assistance.
If you change the Password Severity setting from Strong to Stringent in the Security
BIOS Setup Utility menu, the Fujitsu Service Desk can no longer reset the password.
In this case, the system can remain permanently unusable.
Therefore, Fujitsu recommends to generally set up a supervisor password
with the se tting Password Severity = Strong.
