Depending on the device configuration level, your notebook is equipped
with a SmartCa rd reader.
SmartCards are not supplied as standard equipment. You can use all SmartCards that comply with
the ISO standard 7816-1, -2 or -3. These SmartCards are available from various manufacturers.
With the appropriate software you can use your SmartCard as an alternative to password protection,
but also as a digital signature, for encrypting your e-mails or for home banking.
We recom m end that you always use two SmartCards. Always keep one of the SmartCards
in a safe place if you are carrying the other SmartCa rd with you.
In order to be able to take advantag e of all the security features of your not ebook, you
will need a Ca rdO S SmartCard from Fujitsu Technology So lutions.
The SmartCard can only be used with a PIN, offering maximum protection even if
you lose the SmartCard. In order t o maximise your security, the CardOS SmartCard
is disabled if three incorrect attem pts are made to enter the PIN.
When you use the CardOS SmartCard for the first time, you will either need to enter the
preset PIN "12345678" or the PIN given to you by your systems administrator.
