2.3 Unlocking the Security Partition

Anytime you run KDMElite200, you will be asked to login using your security password. You need to

provide the correct security password in order to access the Defender Elite200’s secure partition.

When the login screen appears:

1. Enter your password in the Password field.

2. Click on the Login button.

Caution! If you enter your password incorrectly six times in a row (six is the default setting, this may

be different depending on your setup), for security purposes, any data stored on the secure partition will

automatically be erased. You will be issued an on-screen warning when you have one attempt remaining,

to prevent accidental erasure. To cancel the login process, click on the Cancel button. Unplugging and

then reinserting your Defender Elite200 or manually running KDMElite200.exe will bring the login

window back.

Once you have successfully logged in to KDMElite200, the Defender Elite200’s secure partition will be

accessible through My Computer or Windows Explorer. For more information on accessing the secure

partition, see section 2.5 Encrypting Files and Folders on page 23.

Caution! Once KDMElite200 has started, you should never disconnect your device without first closing

KDMElite200 properly by clicking the KDMElite200 task bar icon and selecting Unmount Kanguru

Defender as described in section 2.12 Unmounting Your Defender Elite200 on page 32.

Note: If your Defender drive is being managed by KRMC, you may see an Autorun checkbox. This

means that your administrator has configured your drive to auto-execute a file saved on your drive’s secure

partition every time you successfully login. You can disable the Autorun functionality by unchecking

this box.
