Passwords and PINs

Mobile Device Passwords and PINs are security measures used to authenticate users and protect access to their devices.

• Passwords: Alphanumeric characters, symbols, and case sensitivity.
• PINs (Personal Identification Numbers): Numeric code for device unlocking.
• Authentication: Confirm user identity and ownership.
• Security: Protect against unauthorized access.
• Lock Screen: Screen locked until correct password or PIN is entered.
• Failed Attempts: Repeated failures can trigger security measures.
• Biometric Backup: Biometric authentication as an alternative.
• User Responsibility: Users create and protect passwords or PINs.
• Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Combine password or PIN with another method for enhanced security.
