This product has a fingerprint utility installed for the purpose of enrolling

password from the keyboard. Fingerprint feature enables you to:
■
Logon to Windows and access a security enabled homepage through
Internet Explorer.
■
Files and folders can be encrypted/decrypted and third party access to
them prevented.
■
Disable the password-protected screen-saver when returning from a
power-saving mode such as Sleep Mode.
■
Authentication of the User Password (and, if applicable, the HDD (Hard
Disk Drive) Password) when booting up the computer (Power-on
Security).
■
Single Sign-on facility
