Unlock Settings
Login and Unlock Method
| Set on Client Computer: | Allows end-users to choose the settings on the Client application on their own computers. |
| 1FA: Touch Token or Scan Card | Touch the token to the USB sensor to authenticate – just like an NFC card. |
| 2FA: Token/Card plus PIN | Requires the presence of a GateKeeper token and typing of a secret PIN to authenticate. |
Quick Return Timeout: GateKeeper can be set to automatically unlock the computer if the same user comes back to the same computer within this Quick Return Timeout period. Only applicable when the Unlock Method is set to GateKeeper with PIN Login. Force PIN Login Timeout
Force PIN Login Timeout: GateKeeper can force users to type their PIN to log in irrespective of their chosen Unlock Method if the user comes back to the computer AFTER this PIN Login Timeout period. Use this to force users to confirm their identity at required intervals. If the timer is set to 1 hour with the Automatic Login mode, then the users will be required to log in with their PIN after every 1 hour.
Remember Previous User: GateKeeper can be set to automatically unlock the computer if the user comes back to the same computer within this Remember Previous Login Timeout period. Only applicable when the Unlock Method is set to GateKeeper with PIN Login.
Require Windows Password
| Set on Client computer: | Allows end-users to choose the settings on the Client application. |
| Never: | GateKeeper will never ask for your Windows or Mac username and password to authenticate. |
| At Login: | GateKeeper will ask for Windows or Mac username and password only when you log into your account using their token. |
| Always: | Any time a user unlocks their computer with their token, they will be asked for their Windows or Mac username and password. |
Disable Windows Standard Login
| Set on Client computer: | Allows end-users to control this feature from their own computers. |
| Enable: | Any time a user unlocks their computer with their token, they will be asked for their Windows or Mac username and password. |
| Disable: | This will disable the Windows/macOS login option. If the user does not have their token, they will not be able to access the computer. |
