5 Creating a Lost and Found Message This feature allows you to create a message that will
appear on the IronKey Unlocker window. In the event
that you lose your IronKey, someone can return it to
you if you provide your contact information.
6 Changing your device password You can change your device password and optionally
back it up online to your Online Security Vault at
my.ironkey.com.
Changing your password on a regular basis is a good
security practice. However, be especially careful to
remember your IronKey password.
7 Viewing device details You can view details about your device, including
model number, serial number, software and rmware
version, secure les drive, and OS. You can also click
the copy button (CTRL+C) to copy device details
to the clipboard for your forum posting or support
request; visit the website (CTRL+W); or view legal
notices (CTRL+N) and certications (CTRL+?).
8 Adding, renaming, and removing
applications to the Applications List
To manage the items in the Applications List of the
IronKey Control Panel, simply right-click anywhere
in Applications List and click to add, rename, delete
applications in the list. You can also change between
icon and list view.
NOTE:
» Mac: Applications installed on the secure volume
are automatically added to the list (default: empty).
»
Items in the list are shortcuts to actual les. Manag-
ing the items in the list will not alter the actual le.
»
Items are automatically sorted alphabetically.
»
Any le can be added to the list, including docu-
ments, images, and batch les.
»
For items that are not applications, Windows will
open the item with the default program associated
with that letype.
9 Locking and unplugging the IronKey Clicking “Lock Drive” (Windows, CTRL+L) or “Lock
& Quit” (Mac) exits open IronKey applications and
locks the device. It is then safe to unplug it from your
computer. Ensure that you close all open applications
and les before locking your IronKey to prevent data
corruption.
