HOW DO I USE PASSWORD PROTECTION?
DO MY FILES NEED PASSWORD PROTECTION?
If your Clickfree Portable Backup Drive is lost or stolen, anyone with a computer that
meets the hardware and software prerequisites can restore files from your Portable
Backup Drive simply by connecting the Portable Backup Drive to their computer, unless
the Portable Backup Drive is protected by a password.
You should protect your files using a password if the content you have backed up is
sensitive in any way, for example, contains trade secrets, or if it would be embarrassing
to you if it got into the wrong hands, and there is any possibility that the Portable
Backup Drive could be lost or stolen.
HOW DO I CHOOSE A PASSWORD?
Choose your password according to the sensitivity of the content you are protecting.
Advice on passwords is easy to come by – just google “choose password” to find as
much advice as you could possibly use. Clickfree imposes no restrictions on the
password, and treats upper-case and lower-case letters as identical.
Warning: Be sure to pick a password that would be difficult for anyone else to discover
and that you will be able to remember – if you forget your password there is no
way to recover any backed-up content from the Portable Backup Drive.
