44 LOC SAVER FOR WINDLOC SAVER FOR WINDOWSOWS
Temporarily unattended computers can pose a serious security
problem; a secure logon procedure is worthless if a ten-minute
coffee break can leave the whole system exposed. On the other
hand, it is inconvenient to have to turn off the computer for only a
short absence.
LOC Saver for Windows is an optional software enhancement for
the Microsoft Windows for Workgroups v3.11 operating system.
When leaving the computer unattended for a time, a user can click
the button on his KeyLOC card to obscure the screen and lock the
keyboard and mouse. When the user returns, another click of the
button cancels unattended mode.
LOC Saver can be invoked and cancelled only by the currently-
logged-on user or by any Master user (provided that they have
KeyLOC cards).
The user can select a .BMP file with which to obscure the screen,
and specify an inactivity timeout so that LOC Saver can act like a
secure screen saver.
Ask your Apricot supplier about how to get a copy of LOC Saver.
