Encrypt your tablet You can encrypt all the data on your tablet: Google Accounts, app data, music and other media, downloaded information, and so on. If you do, you must enter a numeric PIN or password each time you turn on your tablet. Note that this is the same PIN or password that you use to unlock your tablet without encryption, and cannot be set independently. Warning: Encryption is irreversible. The only way to revert to an unencrypted tablet is to perform a factory data reset, which erases all your data. Encryption provides additional protection in case your tablet is stolen, and may be required or recommended in some organizations. Consult your system administrator before turning it on. In many cases the PIN or password you set for encryption is controlled by the system administrator. Before turning on encryption, prepare as follows: 1. Set a lock screen PIN or password. 2. Charge the battery. 3. Plug in your tablet. 4. Schedule an hour or more for the encryption process: you must not interrupt it or you will lose some or all of your data. When you're ready to turn on encryption: 1. Touch Settings > Personal > Security > Encryption > Encrypt tablet. 2. Read the information about encryption carefully.
