CHAPTER 22
Keeping Your Information Private
Limiting the number of password attempts
You can set the number of incorrect password attempts that are allowed before selected 
information is deleted from your handheld. This feature, called intrusion protection, protects 
sensitive information from an intruder who uses an automated means to try every possible 
combination until the password is found. Use intrusion protection if you keep highly confidential 
information on your handheld. 
 If you limit the number of password attempts, be sure to use Keylock to prevent 
accidental password attempts while your handheld is in a purse or pocket.
