Unlock Settings

Unlock Methods

Set on Client Computer:	Allows end-users to choose the settings on the Client application on their own computers.
Automatic Login:	Proximity login - once the user is in the range of the computer, the user will be auto-authenticated and logged in.
Press Enter to Login:	When the token is in range of the computer, press the Enter key to authenticate the user.
Touch to Login:	Touch the token to the USB sensor to authenticate – just like an NFC card.
GateKeeper with PIN Login:	Requires the presence of a GateKeeper token (factor 1) and typing of a secret PIN (factor 2) 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.

Require user to enter Windows/macOS password

Set on Client computer:	Allows end-users to choose the settings on the Client application.
Never:	GateKeeper will no longer ask for users for their Windows or Mac username and password to authenticate.
At Login:	GateKeeper will ask for Windows or Mac username and password only when users 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.

Windows/macOS standard login

Set on Client computer:	Allows users to individually enable or disable 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.
