How to find this setting:

Main Console > Settings > Other Settings > Password

A password protects access to your security software and safeguards some of its features. Once you set a password, anyone who wants to shut down or uninstall the software must provide the correct password.

Enable your password

  1. On the main console, click the Settings button.
  2. Under Other Settings, click Password.
  3. Select Enable password protection to prevent unauthorized changes to set a password.
  4. Type your case-sensitive password in the Password field.
  5. Retype the same case-sensitive password in the Confirm password field.
  6. Provide a password hint and an email address where you want the password sent if you forget it.

Password requirements

  • Your password must have between 8 and 50 characters.

  • You can use any combination of simple letters and numbers (A-Z, a-z, and 0-9).

  • The password system recognizes the difference between upper case letters and lower case letters.

  • Your password may not include the following characters:

    • Umlaut (Ä, ä, and others) or foreign language characters (such as Chinese, Korean, or Japanese characters)

    • Shortcut keys, such as Ctrl+C or Ctrl+V

Note:

Make sure to provide a valid email address where you can receive your password if you forget it later.
