PDA Defense Professional - PDA Defense is intended for users who rely on their personal digital assistants (PDAs) for entry, storage and retrieval of confidential data. PDA Defense Professional is a robust security application that addresses an alarming need to protect the information stored on Palm OS PDA devices.
PDA security should be a serious concern for every handheld device user. PDAs are easily misplaced or lost, and their portability makes them easy targets for thieves. In fact, there are publicly available free programs or "hacks,"such as "No Security," that allow anyone to bypass the default Palm OS security system.
PDA Defense Professional automatically and securely locks a Palm OS-based device and provides an easy-to-use interface and flexible protection alternatives. PDA Defense Professional is the only comprehensive security product available for the Palm OS that locks down potential security holes. It disables any data transfer mechanisms such as HotSync® and IrDa port, so that there is no way to retrieve information without a password. Your information is secure even if the device is reset.
PDA Defense Professional provides flexible encryption options to protect the user's databases. You can choose which databases to protect. This includes both standard Palm OS application databases, such as Address and Datebook, as well as third-party application databases. You can also choose from different encryption algorithms (Blowfish or fast) and whether to encrypt only private records or all records.
You can also choose to either allow unlimited password attempts, or activate the "bomb." Once activated, the "bomb" will allow a limited number of attempts (between three and 10) to enter a password successfully. Once an unauthorized user reaches that limit trying to crack the owner's password, PDA Defense Professional will selectively bit-wipe any or all of the PDA's data and applications (based on user preferences), effectively preventing would-be information thieves access to any personal or classified information. All information, of course, can be easily retrieved by restoring a back-up or syncing the device to the owner's computer system.
