Password Protection. Any attempts to access your workstation or server while TSL is running (by typing a key or moving the mouse) require a valid username and password to be entered. If no password is entered, the password dialog box will disappear after 5 seconds. Options include:
- USE SYSTEM LOGON PASSWORD: The software will expect the user to type in their logon password - the same password that is used to log on to their account. NOTE: This is the default option.
- CONFIGURE WITH NEW PASSWORD: You may also choose to enter a different password manually via the configuration program.
- Added support for alternate characters on international keyboards in the password. (TSL-PRO Only)
Grant access to other users. (TSL-PRO Only) Ideal for multiple-user shared computer environments. Enables an adminstrator, a specified group of users, and/or other authenticated users to access the system without closing the current session. Options include:
