DataShield is convenient
When you use DataShield, all of your information is available right at
your fingertips. No more lost passwords or forgotten renewals. No more
hunting for scraps of paper or yellow "stickies". No more digging through
files. It's all right there in DataShield.
|
|
|
|
The main record view gives you quick access to your data. Filter
the list by template type and category to find just what you're
looking for, or use the built-in Palm OS® Find function to
search your data.
A security
setting lets you control whether your encrypted data is
displayed or masked, and whether or not it's searchable. Display options let you select a font and colors for
the list. |

DataShield is secure
Your information is stored in a
password-protected DataShield database. You assign a password when you
first run the DataShield program, and your information is locked safely
away.
| |
|
|
|
|
 |
|
When you assign or change your password, choose from three available
formats — alpha-numeric, digits-only or PIN.
With the PIN format, access your data by entering your secret code
sequence using the buttons on Palm OS device's casing. |

DataShield uses the Rijndael algorithm, adopted by the
National Institute of Standards and Technology to be the new AES
standard for cryptography. AES provides strong encryption with extremely
secure protection against cryptanalysis. Visit
http://www.nist.gov for
more information.
When you lock DataShield, nobody can access your encrypted data without
your password — not even the software engineers at Ultrasoft.
DataShield is flexible
It's easy to organize your information. When you create a new data record, select a template
type and a Palm OS®
category. Both allow you to filter the main list. The template is also used to:
- specify the fields that are available in the record
- provide default encryption settings
- provide default values, such as the record color, icon and reminder
schedule

|

Use the built-in templates to organize your data. Customize them to
suit your needs, or create your own from scratch.

DataShield comes with three preset security levels: high,
medium and low. Or you can select your own options in the
security preferences panel to create a custom security level.
|
|
|
|
You can set DataShield to lock — requiring password re-entry — when you exit the program.
You can have it remain unlocked while you work, switching back and forth between applications, so
you don't have to keep re-entering your password.
You can
have it automatically lock when your device is powered off, or after a
timeout period, to maintain security.
