Setting A User Pin Policy - iStorage diskAshur2 Benutzerhandbuch

7. Setting a User PIN Policy

The Administrator can set a restriction policy for the User PIN. This policy includes setting the minimum length of the PIN
(from 7 to 15 digits), as well as requiring or not the input of a 'Special Character'. The "Special Character" functions as
'Shift + digit'.
To set a User PIN Policy (restrictions) you will need to enter 3 digits, for instance '091', the first two digits (09) indicate
the minimum PIN length (in this case, 9) and the last digit (1) denotes that a 'Special Character' must be used, in other
words 'Shift + digit'. In the same way, a User PIN Policy can be set without the need of a 'Special Character', for instance
'120', the first two digits (12) indicate the minimum PIN length (in this case,12) and the last digit (0) meaning no Special
Character is required.
Once the Administrator has set the User PIN Policy, for instance '091', a new User PIN will need to be created. If the
Administrator creates the User PIN as '247688314' with the use of a 'Special Character' (Shift+digit), this can be
placed anywhere along your 7-15 digit PIN during the process of creating the User PIN as shown in the examples below.

Note:
• If a 'Special Character' was used during the creation of the User PIN, for instance, example 'B' above, then
the drive can only be unlocked by entering the PIN with the 'Special Character' entered precisely in the order
created, as per example 'B' above - ('2', '4', 'Shift + 7', '6', '8', '8', '3', '1', '4').
• Users are able to change their PIN but are forced to comply with the set 'User PIN Policy' (restrictions), if
and when applicable.
• Setting a new User PIN Policy will automatically delete the User PIN if one exists.
• This policy does not apply to the 'Self-Destruct PIN'. The complexity setting for the Self-Destruct PIN and
Admin PIN is always 7-15 digits, with no special character required.
