13 chapter SECURITY FEATURES Types of Security Security features protect your computer and the information stored on it from unauthorized access. s The power-on password prevents unauthorized use of the computer when it is turned on, restarted, or resumed from Suspend or Hibernation. s The setup password prevents unauthorized users from changing your computer's configuration through Computer Setup. The setup password may also be used by network administrators to protect and access the configuration of multiple computers in a network. s Quick Controls clear the screen and disables the keyboard and other input devices while the computer is running. s DriveLock security prevents unauthorized use of the hard drive even if the drive is removed from your computer and booted in a different computer with DriveLock. s The login password (Windows NT only) is used to log in to Windows NT. When combined with the security features above, it prevents unauthorized users from accessing your hard drive. Windows NT has a multiple boot menu which can allow users to boot up Windows 3.1 or Windows 95, bypassing Windows NT security. s Computer Setup allows you to disable devices and prevent unauthorized use of specific computer components. s The cable lock provision allows you to attach the computer to an immovable object such as a desk to prevent unauthorized removal of the computer.
