9. In the “Security Setup” window you will create a “backup password
le”. The “backup password le” is necessary for unlocking your Aegis
Bio in the event that ngerprint verication is not possible. (To view the
password in plain text, select the Unhide password check box.)
10. Next, select a location for storing your “backup password le”, by
default it goes into the current users “My Documents” folder.
Note: It is strongly recommended that you keep your “backup password
le” in a safe place and not on the Aegis Bio itself. When ngerprint
verication cannot be performed, it is impossible to unlock your device
without both knowledge of the password and the “backup password
le”.
11. Once you’re done with the “Security Setup” window click “Next” to
continue to the “Aegis Formatter” window.
