Assigning Security Options
Your handheld includes a Security application that lets you protect your handheld from other users in a variety of ways:
• Mask or hide entries you have defined as private. The Mask option displays a gray bar over private records, and the Hide
option completely removes (hides) private records.
• Assign a password to viewing options to enhance security. Assigning a password requires you to enter a password before
private entries can be viewed; not assigning a password lets you view private entries when you Show Records from the
Security dialog box.
• Lock and turn off your handheld so that a password must be entered before you can use the device again.
• Hide records that you have defined as private, with or without a password. Without a password, private records are hidden
until you set the Security application to display them; with a password, you must enter the password to view the private
entries.
Masking and Hiding Records
You can mask or hide private records. When you mask private records, a visual placeholder appears where the record would
normally be displayed; when you hide records, they are not visible anywhere in the list. To mask a record, you must mark it as
private first.

1. Open the application where you want to make a record private.
2. Tap to highlight the record.
3. In the Address Book, tap
Edit and then Details. In other applications, tap Details.
4. Tap to check the box next to Private and then tap OK.
To mask private records:
